However, I do not recommend it as tourist’s things to do. Don’t support animal in captivity, they should live freely. Also don’t ride Elephant or support caged tiger, leopard or other animals. Instead visit their natural habitat and enjoy jungle safari with an experienced jungle guide! It doesn’t cost you more and you can enjoy the animal in their natural environment. It’s just like a magic and something I highly recommend you to venture on during your visit to Nepal.
