DADE CITY - You've heard of swimming with dolphins, manatees or even sharks, but tigers?
Our Sean Daly spent the morning doing just that at a zoo in Pasco County.
Dade City's Wild Things is holding their annual "Swim with the Tiger" fundraiser.
The swims are with the zoos two new male Siberian tiger cubs, Rajah and Ruari.
The event raises money for the non-profit sanctuary zoo, which houses over 170 exotic animals.
The 30-minute swims cost $200 and are offered Tuesdays through Saturdays between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
To schedule the swim, call the zoo at (352) 567-9453. You can also visit their website at http://www.dadecityswildthings.com/
