"Tiger Rampage: World's Largest Cats Attack Humans and Dogs in Russia"

Tigers in Russia, saved from extinction by Vladimir Putin, have been involved in a series of attacks on humans and dogs, with two people killed and several injured. The population of endangered Amur tigers has risen to over 750 in the wild, posing a threat to villagers. The attacks are attributed to habitat destruction, poaching, and a decline in the tiger's natural prey. Wildlife experts suggest that the destruction of the tiger's habitats, excessive hunting of their prey, and disease have contributed to the increased attacks.
