Putin arrives at Sochi National Park's leopard nursery ahead of IOC session.



Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is currently paying a working visit to Sochi, has arrived Tuesday at the Persian Leopard Breeding and Rehabilitation Center at Sochi National Park. The head of state intends to personally get to grips with the situation at the nursery and find out details of living conditions of its inhabitants.

To date, four baby leopards were born at Sochi National Park. Two of them are two years old while two others are only over seven months old. Only a sixth-month cub called Grom ("thunder" in English) has its own name. The others have only been given nicknames.
