Tiger hidden with soft toy in luggage

Authorities at Bangkok's international airport found a severely dehydrated tiger cub that had been drugged and hidden alongside a stuffed toy tiger in the suitcase of a woman flying from Thailand to Iran.

The Thai woman, 31, was arrested at Suvarnabhumi Airport before boarding her Sunday flight. The cub, estimated to be about three months old, was sent to a wildlife conservation centre.
