Well, even the dailymail out of UK was not fooled. From the title with quotes around "runaway" tiger, to the referring to his actions as antics, they were not fooled.

Maybe he's intimidated by McCain's VP pick. LOL, he's trying prove he's as tough as the "girl". He failed.

If Joe Biden was there, he would have bored the tiger to death. Obama might have used some pretty words to convince the tiger to eat him last. Only Sarah Palin would have enough experience to compete with Putin in that situation.

Really this is about as good as what comes from the Korean Central News Agency (kcna.co.jp), except for the fact that Kim Jong-Il would’ve shot three tigers.

Maybe we'll get a picture of him, like Chairman Mao, swimming across the Yangtse River. All these dictators and would-be dictators seem to share a definite vulnerability to ShortMan Syndrome.

And for his next great deed, Putin will make a cross with pebbles in the sands of a Normandy beach.

Russian President and Superhero Vladimir Putin takes a well deserved break Sunday after simultaneously shooting a wild tiger, wrestling two grizzly bears while blindfolded and bending a railroad tie with his bare hands.

Vladimir Putin shot a runaway tiger, apparently saving the lives of a group of TV journalists.

what they didn't tell you was that Putin had the journalists, tied to a tree as bait..and was laughing so hard he almost missed....LOL
(really not true but I thought it was funny)

No. He’d have taken them down barehanded. Either that or he’d have made the shots blindfolded.
