Beijing- Virile cannie was seen hungry for a red meat, Kuzya, who is a 23 month old Siberian tiger, would seem the perfect mascot for president Vladimir V.Putin of Russia, who had a personal hand in reintroducing Kuzya to the wild in Russian Far East in May. It seems that Kuzya, who is similar to Putin, has similar territorial ambitions, which this week drew him across the frigid Amur River that separates China and Russia. His arrival set off a diplomatic incident of sorts, when it became clear that President Putin’s tiger, as one of the Russian newspapers put it, was facing the possible peril on the Chinese side of the border. On Friday, Wildlife officials in China’s far Northeast were scrambling to determine the Kuzya’s whereabouts after his Russian minders, tracking him by radio transmitter, and revealing his emotions that he could end up in the hands of poachers-not an unlikely outcome given the steep price a rare Siberian tiger can fetch on the Chinese black market. There is still hope that Kuzya will be sensible and swim back before the river turns to Icy Slush, the newspaper Novaya Gazeta wrote this week. This is a matter to appreciate for the government of China; it holds the animals in high regards, both as talismans of good fortune and an ambassador of for global diplomacy. As far as a matter of Putin, he has also a soft corner for the Animals, and that’s the reason, he is frequently photographed with various wild beats, including snow leopards, polar bears, and dolphins. In addition, this will become a way for good relationship between the Beijing and Moscow.
