Siberian tiger cub Clyopa plays with cat Masyanya in the house of Yekaterina Khodakova, whose Shar Pei dog Cleopatra is breastfeeding Clyopa and her sibling Plyusha in the Black Sea resort of Sochi, Friday, June 29, 2012. The cubs were born in late May in a small zoo at the Oktryabsky resport in Sochi, but their mother refused to feed them. Fewer than 400 Siberian tigers have survived in the wild, most of them in the cedar forests of Russia's Far East. In the background is Yekaterina Khodakova's 18-month-old son Gleb.
