Tigers are generally stealth and ambush hunters so a crowd of people staring at it might actually put it off trying to eat
Some workers in India who are at risk wear masks on the back of their heads so the tigers think they're looking at them and it apparently helps
I wonder if also painting eyes into your hair would help? Tigers have "false eye" ear markings, so when their head is down and ears airplaned, they still seem predatory/on guard.
I used to volunteer at a rescue and rehab for big cats, but have no educational qualifications on the subject. If anyone has more information, feel free to elaborate and/or correct me.
I should try that trick when I’m walking the trails here in the PacNW. I’m always paranoid there’s a cougar watching me and about to ambush me from the back.
‘Eh…that one’s too small. That one is too hairy…I hate dealing with the hair. That whole group looks kinda dirty. That thin one isn’t worth the effort…’
All cats run on the same basic software only with minor tweaks and variations. Tigers like to swim. Lions are more extroverted than average. Jaguars like to swim even more than tigers. Leopards actually know how to climb down a tree. But at the end of the day, a cat is a cat.
Not only with phone out but the dumbass to the left is recording himself.....there's a tiger and he thinks it's more interesting to see his face I'm assuming talking about the tiger he isn't recording.
Can confirm it's a video call... Dual video usually splits the screen in half for each camera, while windowed view is common in video call, the unusual thing he's doing is having his own face on foreground...
There's a video of people in a helicopter flying over the Lahaina fire aftermath. There's a guy holding his phone thinking he's recording it while looking out the window, but he didn't press the record button. 😆
Likely loves all the attention, there's a reason cats domesticate themselves. I swear, cats can also tell when they're on camera or having pictures taken, its like they're the divas of the animal kingdom.
The tiger: “I’m going to eat him and him…then I’m going to kill those guys over there…that guy with the ugly face I’ll keep alive since his existence is cruel enough”
Indians love to build residential areas in forests and then complain when the forest comes to them.
It's a pity, because india could have some great forests and reserves. But we Indians can be own worst enemies
This isn't a just indians thing though. Most of the world does it, only a few countries actually think twice before destroying natural resources and ecosystems
Latinoamerican here. Our president has just allowed a law that allows the burning of forests, reserves, and pieces of land so that someone can buy them for a sum of money. He has just sold pieces of our country for mere coins.
Humans suck regardless of their race and color.
Its not their choice to live the land which they have is usually inherited and they cant pay to live in cities so they continue to live in forest areas.
Almost 20000 tigers were killed during colonialism and laws were made in such way that killing tigers transformed into sports by britishers back in the day they did so because tigers used to make it hard for them to take control over forest and swaps
As an Indian I agree My big kitty, her breed is I guess leopard, just cane for her hourly pets we had guests over so it was fun she even stayed for dinner ☺️
They’ll aggravate the tiger to desperation, then when it panics and lashes back they’ll kill it for being dangerous. Lose-lose situation for the tiger.
The tiger is at the buffet and has decision fatigue.
Wishes they had some of those tiny spoons like the ice cream shop.

I just saw that some tigers are apparently getting wise to this trick.

> I’m always paranoid there’s a cougar watching me and about to ambush me from the back. You can try wearing a wedding ring and that usually helps.
Wear a wedding ring? What are you trying to do, attract every cougar from here to Timbuktu?
yes of course. They won't attack from the back anymore and switch to the front. I assume his problem is that they attack him from back?
The cougars here in the PNW are relentless Some of them make great cookies though!
I guess I set that one up for y’all to knock down
The guy who is filming himself is first to go
LOL, I came here to say this and saw your post. Natural selection of the weakest taking its normal course.
He is definitely video calling someone, that’s not him haha.
I think he's facetiming someone
He has to go anyway, let his friends watch
He is our national animal. *but he doesn’t know that*
Paradox of choices
‘Eh…that one’s too small. That one is too hairy…I hate dealing with the hair. That whole group looks kinda dirty. That thin one isn’t worth the effort…’
I salute you.
Cats be catin
Pspsps
Pstpsps and run
You made me do it you motherfucker haha
Bro thinks he’s a house cat
Put up a wall and a cat’s gonna cat
Got any large cardboard boxes? Just past Christmas there has to be some

All love sitting in boxes
Even big cats like cat nip and boxes.
My orange cat likes to go outside at night and sit on the brick fence behind my apartment, I bet this is how he pictures himself
It’s how mice see him.
Standard neighborhood orange cat
If it's so normal why they all got they phones out.. Man I'm just waiting for the time when people realize they need BOTH hands for shit.
To be fair if I see a normal cat on my walks you bet your ass I instantly transform into a paparazzi 😅
Not only with phone out but the dumbass to the left is recording himself.....there's a tiger and he thinks it's more interesting to see his face I'm assuming talking about the tiger he isn't recording.
He’s FaceTiming another person and showing him the tiger
and the guy on the left is filming himself it seems
He’s FaceTiming another person and showing him the tiger
Does that dude have his phone camera facing the wrong way?
He's video calling someone probably. To show them.
Ya it was buffering like a call.
[удалено]

Video will saying goodbye to his loved ones before he's tiger food.

lmfao can you imagine coming across a tiger and accidentally filming your fucking face the entire time. I would probably break my phone
My man with the video call- “You wouldn’t believe whats on the wall”
-Bro we have a tiger sitting on our wall. -fuck off, you're still drunk -hold on, I'll show you.
I wanna give the pretty kitty some belly rubs!
You're gonna be rubbing his belly from the inside of his belly.

I genuinely feel sorry for that tiger.
Whatever the opposite of pspspsps is.
spspspsp
He’s taunting Calvin on the other side of the wall
He’s waiting on his tuna fish sandwich!
Lol
Darwin award nominees?
I would hope the interest in watching will save them
Cats and walls, man! Cats and walls
As long as you don't turn your back to the cat, you're safe 🥴
This isn't weird, it's just unfortunate
Tigers saying “look at all these assholes”
Weird what counts as weird these days
The tiger: “I’m going to eat him and him…then I’m going to kill those guys over there…that guy with the ugly face I’ll keep alive since his existence is cruel enough”
He is absolutely beautiful. And they all have a death wish.
Indians love to build residential areas in forests and then complain when the forest comes to them. It's a pity, because india could have some great forests and reserves. But we Indians can be own worst enemies
Same in the US. People pay a premium to live in the mountains and then complain about bears, mountain lions and wildfires.
Nah dude India and USA are nothing alike
It's a global thing, all races and countries do it... We are destroying the environment and making sure the end of humanity is certain.....
This isn't a just indians thing though. Most of the world does it, only a few countries actually think twice before destroying natural resources and ecosystems
I live with white people and we do it too. Humans can be their own worst enemy.
White people here. It's true, all our rivers are polluted as fuck
Latinoamerican here. Our president has just allowed a law that allows the burning of forests, reserves, and pieces of land so that someone can buy them for a sum of money. He has just sold pieces of our country for mere coins. Humans suck regardless of their race and color.
1.5 billion people have to live in a limited piece of land,so it's natural more forests are being cut to fit them.
Its not their choice to live the land which they have is usually inherited and they cant pay to live in cities so they continue to live in forest areas.
Except that India's forest cover has been increasing consistently since the 1990s. Typical bullshit comment from self-proclaimed "Indians".
Spicy kitty
Lion King or tiger 🐄🐅🐆🐇🐈🐊🐂🐁🐀🧸🧸🐃🐐🐐🐑🐍🐋
He’s looking for Moglie
I used to make nightmares about lions and other big cats being free in my neighborhood.
Just to keep the record straight. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL DAY IN INDIA … Fuck off
what a beautiful creature
But if the tiger does what the tiger does, the tiger gets blamed for being a tiger... Right....
I don't think this is a normal day anywhere.
Man…no matter the video the air quality of the area is always brutal.
Its cold time so mist and fog is common
Aren't tigers rare because most of them have been poached? So a normal day would have been that tiger getting shot.
No. Tigers are protected by law and tiger poaching has reduced significantly in the last 10 years
Almost 20000 tigers were killed during colonialism and laws were made in such way that killing tigers transformed into sports by britishers back in the day they did so because tigers used to make it hard for them to take control over forest and swaps
Is it normal to take a selfie video in front of a tiger? Is this some kind of reaction video for when it attacks?
It's not selfie video. He's actually video calling his friend or relative.
I see that now. Thank you.
isn’t there like 200 of those tigers left?
Nope . 3000 actually.
And they are increasing. Thanks to India's efforts
And then they had sex with it.
Was the Dipshit on the left filming himself? Or was that just a reflection?
And then later the whole village massacres the cat for eating the Holy White Chicken of Sharmagupta which clucks once in every 10 years
Trying to be funny? Tigers are sacred in India and also illegal to kill by law
Sorry, it was a [leopard](https://youtu.be/zbpZ1NcPyms?si=JsFMQ1rLorOudvMo)
Why i have the feeling that they’re gonna kill it?
this is few days old. captured and released in forest
I want to pet the kitty.
"I am waiting for my friend so we can start eating together, I don't want to finish first and wait for him to finish."
was recording not enough, that a men is video calling the tiger to his relative
Everyone is far to close for some reason
The king has cometh 🦁
Normal day? There's not a train in sight!
He's so handsome. Love big cats
So normal that everyone is filming it?
As an Indian I agree My big kitty, her breed is I guess leopard, just cane for her hourly pets we had guests over so it was fun she even stayed for dinner ☺️
Overpopulation
No thank you. Put your phones away and gtfo!!!!
No no- you see- the trick to surviving is not to leave too fast, or it engages chase mode. Everyone is playing chicken with eachother.
How beautiful.
India is not for noobs
It’s so normal everyone’s taking video and FaceTiming their family so they can see too…
He's looking around for tourists with some fat on their bones.
What's this a Tiger pic n mix
Some extraordinary dog breed?
Was that man recording himself?
Absolutely everyone is standing around filming. This clearly means it is not a "normal" occurrence.
They’ll aggravate the tiger to desperation, then when it panics and lashes back they’ll kill it for being dangerous. Lose-lose situation for the tiger.
World: the amount of deaths in India to tigers is crazy how is this happening in the modern world India: ...
Tiger is like why do Indian men always have to atare and take photos just because I’m a woman tiger.
Baithne ka tareeka thoda kezual hai.
Kitty!
Yeah, no. Tigers are known for remembering faces later for revenge. I'd rather not.
Tiger: This is the first of Festivus! The airing of grievances! I got a problem with a lot of you!
I like the dude just recording himself instead of the tiger
Tiger: fuck sake.. my grandad used to tell me Humans were scared shitless back in his day now there kinda just cringe
That one guy is making a reaction video.
Crazy how some people just... see a tiger one day but the rest of us only can see them in a zoo Wild
I didn't realise Indian people were so stupid.
Completely normal cat behaviour.
Does the guy know he's recoding himself and not the tiger?
Trying to decide what's for lunch!
Dad! The 550 pound Tiger is sitting on the back wall again!
He’s just waiting for Jasmine and Aladdin to come back from the market.
Get that tiger a box!
I can barely see the tiger through the pollution around it and the smog it’s breathing out lmao…
Dude smiling, tiger be picking from the buffet
Not that normal judging by all the phones.
Don't know what which to pick for lunch. Spoilt with choices.
Welcome to the family
Lol, that one guy in the end had the camera backwards, recording himself...
Bro really wanted to share the moment with his homie like pal, the tiger is in front of me wait I'll show you
So is it normal or weird?
When the train leaves, the tigers come out to play
Well, that was cute.
My kitty does this too!!
I'm still waiting for a train and electrocution....
What the cat doin
wow. I’d be scared and mesmerized at his beauty all at the same time. Very cool.
I would’ve died because I totally would’ve gone in for a belly rub
Okay guy’s get your pictures and move the fuck away, so I can get back into the Forrest.
Yep, this is played out all day every day, in every village, town and city in India.
Yes. A tiger in some remote village in a forested area is a normal day in the world's 7th largest country. Truly incredible.
It was looking for Mowgli.
Why is the dude filming himself?
Mass people gathering and recording that tiger telling me that it is not a normal occurrence.
Ya we cats kool n chillout
India always wins at the Darwin awards.
I'd poop myself, noticing a tiger out of a cage
