Tiger roams dangerously close to car during safari, forces it to reverse. Watch

The video has been shared with a poignant message about entering a wild animal’s space and watching it in its natural habitat.

Sighting a wild animal like a lion or tiger during a wildlife safari can be an exciting experience. However, things can get quite frightening if the animals get too close to the vehicles. The frightening moment a tiger walked dangerously close to a car, most likely during a forest safari, has been shared on Twitter. The video has been shared with a poignant message about entering a wild animal’s space and watching it in its natural habitat.

The video has been shared by Indian Forest Services officer Susanta Nanda, who is known for sharing many such videos of animals on his Twitter handle.

The video has been shared by Indian Forest Services officer Susanta Nanda, who is known for sharing many such videos of animals on his Twitter handle. The clip shows the tiger walking by casually mere metres away from the vehicle. As the tiger walks ahead, the car is seen being reversed by the driver in what feel like extremely intense moments. The tiger, however, seems unfazed by the vehicle and simply walks towards some trees and disappears behind some shrubs.

“How close is close enough?” asks Nanda about the video. “Will this lead to familiarity between these two apex predators with tragic consequences later? Time to understand that proximity and closeness are not the same. Let’s be sensitive to the space required for this majestic animal,” he adds further.

The video has collected over quite a few reactions from people on Twitter.
