Underfed tiger: A medical officer from Cisarua-based Taman Safari
Indonesia records the health progress of a 15-year-old female Sumatran
tiger named Melani from Surabaya Zoo on Sept. 3. Due to poor management
at the zoo, the tiger weighs only 50 kilograms, far below her ideal
weight of 70 to 80 kilograms. The tiger's weight has increased by 8
kilograms lately since the zoo's management was taken over by the
Ministry of Forestry. (JP/Indra Harsaputra, link)
