People put a goat into the home of a Siberian tiger(西伯利亚虎) at a Russian zoo. The goat was the lunch for the tiger. The people in the zoo didn’t think they could see the goat after lunch. But they were all wrong, something strange happened. The tiger didn’t eat the goat. They became good friends!

Keepers in the zoo thought it a brave goat, so they call it Timur. Timur means “iron”. Timur follows the tiger around and even sleeps in its house. The zookeepers said that the tiger was quite lazy —so lazy that it didn’t eat the goat. Let's just hope that the tiger doesn't get hungry!
