Owner Takes Tiger For A Stroll Through As Pedestrians Cower In Fear

Pedestrians cowered in fear when they spotted a man taking his pet Tiger for a walk in the centre of a Russian city.

Jaw-dropping footage shows the man walking his big cat on a lead in the city of Samara in southwest Russia.

A shocked onlooker filmed the scene while travelling in a passing car. Some people believe the man seen walking the beast could be the circus artist and animal trainer, Artur Bagdasarov.

Other pictures show the huge animal having a rest and lying down on a zebra crossing. The tiger seemed to be calm, and no one was reported to have been hurt.


But one internet user slammed the owner for not using a muzzle on the animal.

'Alexander Grishchenko' said: 'They have money to maintain a tiger, but they have no money for a muzzle.'
