Death of tigers
0 
A total of 11 Siberian tigers have died over the past 3 months in a zoo in northeast China's Liaoning Province, local animal protection officials said on March 11.
The tigers died due to malnutrition rather than infectious diseases, said Liu Xiaoqiang, vice chief of the Shenyang Wild Animal Protection Station. However, what's the truth about the tigers' death.
An investigation team is probing the causes of the deaths of the tigers and disposal of tiger parts, the previous use of government funds, and the dispute between employees and zoo management and the operation of the zoo.
