Video of tiger roaming Doha streets being circulated on social media
While today dawned like every other day for those in Qatar, it’s turning out to be quite wild. A while ago, a video of a tiger roaming the streets of Qatar was sent to us.
The precise location where the video was captured or how the tiger ended up sprinting through the road still remain a question.
However, it has been concluded that the video could have been shot on the February 22nd Street
Wild animals running through the streets? Anyone know more? Sent to us - not sure who took it or where. #DohaTiger pic.twitter.com/RThIwOHPCp

Raising wild and exotic animals as pets have been something that the ministry has strictly warned against.
The ministry has been issuing countless warnings repeatedly about the dangers of rearing up such animals intended for the wild.
While more on this could be read in our post titled “Qatar's obsession over exotic animals for pets”, drop a comment below about your thoughts on this.
Legal sction will have to be taken because this news has gone viral all over the world....
Hopefully, it will send a clear message to other owners - but we'll see
yes legal action will be taken
Is the owner of this Tiger being charged?
Whatever, they're my favourite animal so yeah...
Brit: Humans and not just fresh meat but also the tastiest.
yes very true britexpat.
Tigers can never be tamed .. They can turn on you any time - To them , you are fresh meat .... So be wary :O)
if hes cute u should think about getting married to the tiger :P
Brit where's the Cuban shotputter now? Not together anymore?
Nanofilm: this tiger is an escaped or abandoned pet and would probably eat out of your hand... Just saw a pic of some guy holding him by his leash on the same road... Don't say anything mean about him he's very cute :-)
awesome, I love to have him as a pet
Mohdata: I know how you feel. from the moment I saw my Cuban Shotputter , all I wanted to do was take her home and hug her close
Ofcourse , Cuban Shotputters are cuddlier than tigers and don't have claws
it no way looks like a baby...a man eater..be careful brit...sit inside your pink kia till its safe
If that's a baby, then I'd hate to see a grown one :O(
Oh god the poor thing... Hope they catch him safely and he doesn't get run over or shot... God I hate us humans sometimes... Wish tigers were tame, I wanna hug him so tight and take him home and make him the happiest tiger ever look at him he's so cute...
Thumbs Up for WT :D :D HILARIOUS !!
it's baby tiger :))
it's baby :))
This is quite normal for Doha. Everyday wild monkeys are even driving cars.
Reminds me of The Jungle Book and Sher Khan :O(
