{{/usCountry}}This isn't the first time a tiger was seen walking around in UP. Earlier, a tiger was seen strolling through a field in Pilbhit while a farmer nearby was ploughing the ground. The farmer and the tiger nonchalantly continue with their tasks, unaffected by each other's presence.
The video was shared on X by user Raj Lakhani. In the caption of the post, Lakhani wrote, "This is Pilibhit, UP. A tiger roaming in the field & in the background farmer ploughing the field. Video shot by another farmer."
Since the video was shared, it quickly went viral on social media, leaving many people stunned by how animals and humans have adapted to each other.
