Mumiy Troll's bass-guitar player, Eugene «Sdwig» Zvidionny, goes to the Far East to take part in the celebration dedicated to the Tiger's Day. The Tiger's Day is traditionally celebrated in Russia in September.

Eugene Zvidionny: «By protecting tigers, we save our planet, forests and rivers, air and ourselves.»

The musicians of Mumiy Troll actively participate in actions related to the protection of the stripy predator: Ilya Lagutenko is a patron for Russian-British foundation AMUR and speaks out for protection of Amur tigers and Far Eastern leopards on an international level. In the beginning of this year, Ilya met with the founders of the International Tiger Coalition, representatives of the World Bank in New York, and now Eugene Zvidionny went to a brief trip on Russian Martime region together with them.

During several days of this Far Eastern visit, the Mumiy Troll's musician, together with representatives of the World Bank, will visit habitats of Far Eastern leopards and Amur tigers, the wild animals rehabilitation center and meet with the governor of the Martime region. On the 28th of September, during the holiday events on the central square of Vladivostok, Eugene Zvidionny will present Mumiy Troll's AMBA album (AMBA means «tiger» in Udege people language) to the most active participants of various contests.
