Man you can't buy publicity like this. Or maybe you can? Who knows what happens in the jungles of the Far East? Either way this is a story that perfectly supports Putin's carefully crafted macho image and it sure beats Bush's brush clearing antics.
Just as Putin was arriving with a group of wildlife specialists to see a trapped Amur tiger, it escaped and ran towards a nearby camera crew, the country's main television station said. Putin quickly shot the beast and sedated it with a tranquilizer gun.
