Dead Siberian tiger found in SUV trunk
Online Edition
A DEAD Siberian tiger was found being carried from the trunk of a sports utility vehicle in Wenzhou in southeastern Zhejiang Province today when police officers happened upon the scene.
Two men were carrying the wrapped body from the trunk of a white SUV in downtown Wenzhou this morning when they were questioned by a team of police officers headed to morning training.
The officers first suspected the wrapped package was a human body and required the two men to open it. Experts later identified the animal as a Siberian tiger.
One man was placed in custody while the other managed to escape and was still at large by late this afternoon. Police were still investigating why the men had the tiger body.
The Siberian tiger, also know as the Amur or Machurian tiger, mainly lives in eastern Russia, northeast China and the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. It is estimated that only about 500 still live in the wild, including 11 to 13 in Jilin Province and some in Heilongjiang Province.
