Rostov-on-Don (Russia) (AFP) – His name is fit for a king, and he's being treated like one: Tsar the liger cub, born from an extremely rare lion-tiger romance, is proving a hit for a travelling Russian zoo. Stretched out in the zoo director's van, the stripy Tsar — whose name is a throwback to the Russian emperors of centuries past — impatiently awaits his milk bottle. "We don't leave him in a cage — it's too cold outside," said zoo chief Erik Airapetyan.
