Netizens were hooked to social media after a Twitter post on a tiger found near the golf course in Ooty, Tamil Nadu on 5 November went viral. The enthusiasm doubled for the netizens, as it is hard to find a wild animal like a tiger even on a jungle safari, as they witnessed the animal on a golf course. This was amusing, yet very dangerous as Tamil Nadu has recently witnessed a tiger killing four people in the Nilgiris district after coming into the populated area.
