Question

　　Two young Chinese tigers set off on a 7000-mile journey to South Africa where animal experts will teach them how to hunt. The pair of South China tigers named Cathay and Hope will travel from an overcrowded field at Shanghai Zoo to a 1235-acre reserve（保護區(qū)）in South Africa.“There's room for them to move there. But the goal is to bring them back to China, where they have lived for millions of years,”Li Quan, founder of the Save China's Tigers Foundation, told reporters while the animals passed through Hong Kong airport. Quan said there were experts in South Africa with experience in teaching big cats born in imprisonment how to survive in the wild.

　　Big cats would instinctively（本能地）hunt food but needed to be taught how to kill it. The Chinese government says fewer than 30 South China tigers survive in the wild and a further 60 live in zoos. Tigers, which are found only in Asia, are disappearing because of the destruction of their natural surroundings and because of demand for products such as tiger bones, believed in parts of Asia to cure some serious diseases. The foundation hopes to transport another five to seven young tigers to South Africa over the next five years and then introduce them and any young tiger born there into a specially created re-serve in southern China from 2008.
