Baby cub stolen form mother lion

Holiday Circus administrators are concerned for the well-being of a two-month baby tiger cub that was stolen from its mother, Sumatra. Sumatra is in Santo Domingo for performances as part of the Circo Holiday of the Hermanos Suarez. The mother, who has another baby cub, is very anxious and cries the loss of her second cub at night. The administrators are concerned for the well being of the cub whose feeding is costly. Airport authorities have been alerted, and thus the export of the baby Bengala tiger will not be easy. Local vets have also been alerted in case the cub is taken to them. Circus authorities say that a German Shepherd dog is also missing but they suspect he went off with a bitch in heat. They hope that once the love affair is over the dog will return to his job of taking care of the circus.
