An Indian man, who was visiting Tiger Kingdom in Phuket, escaped with minor injuries after he was attacked by a tiger when he was trying to click a selfie with the animal.


An X user Sidharth Shukla shared the horrifying video on the social media.

"Apparently an Indian man attacked by a tiger in Thailand," Shukla shared on X.

"This is one of those paces (places) where they keep tigers like pets and people can take selfies, feed them etc etc," he said.

In the video, an Indian tourist could be seen walking beside the tiger before crouching down to take a selfie with it when the animal attacked him.

Shukla said the man suffered minor injuries.

"Cats generally do not like being petted on the lower (back) body especially near butts. This man was petting the tiger continuously near above mentioned body area which must have frustrated the tiger. Final straw was when the man cupped it for a photo," an internet user said.

"My immediate reaction to this video was a chilling realization: that could have been me! This chilling video exposes a dangerous trend: many Indian tourists are lured into risky photo-ops with tigers in Thailand, often due to relentless peer pressure," another said.

Another internet user said: " I would never trust a lion. Not even a dog."
