I always really enjoy the Guardian’s ‘week in wildlife’ and while I am still developing posts on Polly’s article on bankers earnings and the role of women in society, something more light-hearted is in order.
First picture that piqued my interested was Putin holding the paw of an ‘temporarily immobilised’ tigress. Interesting for 2 reasons: 1. if the tiger had been ‘permanently immobilised’ it probably would have caused more outrage that the trouble in Georgia and 2. it is a big paw. I think Ginny believes that tigers are slightly smaller than her based on clear photographic evidence…
The other photo I loved was this. Loved it just because it is sooooo cute.
You’re right. It is a big paw. And I bet it doesn’t have its toenails clipped!
