Male tigers are unwilling to leave

The male tigers stay up to 2.5 years with their mothers. However, after they learn to hunt for their food, the mothers usually want them to go in search of their male pack and learn other techniques of demarcating the land as their own. The 30-second sentimental footage portrays the unwilling male cubs that are struggling to leave and run back to their mother repeatedly.

Internet users were rendered heartbroken at the visuals and said that animals feel and behave like humans, the clip is proof of that. Some users pointed out that mothers across different animals breed are as emotional as human mothers. The video has been widely circulated and has garnered 1.3k views. The users have left mixed responses at the footage, some calling it the fight between the male tigers while others calling it sibling rivalry.
