- description: Watch What Happened When Amur the Siberian Tiger Met His Match in MOSCOW Timur the goat was meant to be nothing more than a tasty meal for Amur, a Siberian tiger living in a safari park. Timur had other ideas. !!! The stubborn animal was sent into the tiger's enclosure earlier this week as one of the predator's twice-weekly meals of live animals, the park said Thursday. However, no one had taught Timur to be afraid of tigers. And instead of dutifully fulfilling its role in the food chain, Timur chased Amur out of the big cat's own sleeping place. The tiger, by this point seemingly puzzled at the role-reversal, opted against confrontation. Timur has been bedding down in his spot for four nights now; Amur has been banished to sleeping on the shelter's roof. The drama played out at the Primorsky Safari Park, in Russia's far southeastern corner. The park said the "daredevil" goat's heroics were what actually earned it the name Timur, after a courageous kid from a popular Communist-era children's book. "It's a fitting name for such a fearless animal," the park said. Timur has even taken over Amur's sleeping place. Anton Fedoseyev But despite the unusual sleeping arrangements, there does not appear to be any animosity between the unlikely pair. Timur has also taken to following Amur around everywhere. Siberian tigers are an endangered species but their numbers have stabilized in recent years to around 500. This is thanks largely to the conservation efforts by Russian President Vladimir Putin, known for his love of big and dangerous animals. Not all Siberian tigers are goat-friendly, however. Last year, two young tigers released into the wild by Putin crossed into China and wrought havoc among the local livestock, killing dozens goats and chickens before going back to Russia VIDEO - Goat Becomes Pals With Tiger Who Was Supposed to Eat It
