Luckily, he survived.
The call of nature turned into a terrifying ordeal for a man in the remote village of Pilibhit in northern India. A man seeking a moment of privacy to relieve himself in a field found himself face to face with a fearsome animal – a tiger.
According to the Daily Star, the surprise attack left him with severe injuries on his body, forcing him to rush to the hospital for emergency medical attention.
Locals began to panic as the sudden appearance of the tiger raised concerns about safety in the area. Although the man survived the attack, the fear of another encounter with a tiger remains high.
Adding to the tension, there were reportedly no forestry officials at the scene, leaving residents feeling vulnerable and unprotected. Just 80 kilometers from the scene of the attack is a tiger reserve, raising questions about the origin of the aggressive feline.
It remains unclear whether the tiger got lost from the reserve or was always a resident of this area. The uncertainty of the situation only adds to the sense of anxiety among the villagers.
A man recovers from his injuries as the community struggles to cope with the aftermath of the attack.
Representative police said that law enforcement is investigating.
“On receiving the information, Madhotanda police station immediately rushed to the scene and took the injured person to CHC Puranpur for treatment,” the police said. “Preliminary steps are being taken by the forest department and the police team.”
Recall that earlier in the Netherlands a wolf attacked a 10-year-old girl. The animal immediately let go of the child, but he was so scared that he fell and suffered minor injuries.
