The village is small, we live on the outskirts, 300 meters from us is a kindergarten, 500 meters - school, two-storey, three-storey, houses on the ground. We also have cattle. He passed by us and went deep into the village, went through the vegetable gardens, took off the dog, went through other vegetable gardens. And that's how he goes along the main street, you can count," she said.

The interlocutor added that the Okhotnadzor employee only took a few photos and left, while the law enforcers advised locals not to leave their homes. Residents cannot protect themselves, as it is a red-listed animal.

The woman also admitted that not one tiger, but two adults and one tiger cub could have entered the village.
