Several videos on the Internet show how wildlife enters human-occupied spaces. Now, another such bone-chilling video is going viral on social media. The clip shows a tiger entering a cattle field and chasing cattle. But what happens at the end of the video may leave you stunned.
"India now has 75% of the world's wild tigers, numbering around 3200. It will reach its carrying capacity soon until we are obsessed with numbers & make them pests in human-dominated habitats," wrote Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda in a tweet. Along with this, he also shared the video. The clip shows a tiger entering a cattle field and charging toward the cows. As soon as the cows notice the tiger, they run to safety. However, the wild cat still manages to catch one prey. Just minutes after that, another cow charges toward the tiger, and it runs away from the spot.
