A close encounter between a tiger and a vehicle captured in video
Recently a video emerged on social media that has now gone viral shows a tiger that walked too close to a vehicle, as the vehicle tries to take a reverse turn
Safari sightings can be very adventurous and spotting animals in their natural habitat just adds to the experience. However, at times things can turn frightening if the animals get too close. Recently a video emerged on social media that shows a tiger that walked too close to a car that was probably passing through the forest.
A 'close encounter'
The video was shared by an Indian Forest Official with a caption,' How close is close enough'. The officer also urged people to be sensitive to places that belong to animals. The officer also questioned if the tiger has learnt to co-exist with humans.
The viral clip shows a tiger walking by casually strolling metres away from the vehicle. As the tiger walks ahead, the car is seen trying t make a reverse by the driver. The tiger, however, seems unfazed by the vehicle and simply walks towards some trees and disappears behind some shrubs. Just seconds before the tiger disappears he comes extremely close to the vehicle, while the people inside the vehicle try to photograph the mighty cat.
The video has garnered hundreds of retweets and reactions from netizens
Another user was questioning the car and said the animals need privacy
Another official stated that the tiger is a secretive animal and his privacy should not be invaded. He also termed the animal as a 'monk'
