Safari Battle

Occurred on February 28, 2018 / Nagpur, India

Info from Licensor: "The sultry sun during a routine afternoon Safari ensued a relaxed tiger sunbathing in his private tub. The winds of changed and started blowing from the east and none took notice. He felt it first. Body stiffened, a battle position taken and the hair on Matkasur’s back stood up in rhythmic excitement. Almost as if on cue, out came hobbling momma bear with a little parcel hanging on her back.The bear cub ran first as the tiger leaped on to the unsuspecting bear with intentions to kill. With first blood drawn by the tiger, it looked like an open and shut case. Upon noticing it’s missing cub, something changed in that bear. The victim turned aggressor and charged at the tiger with the utmost fury. Not expecting this reaction, Matkasur decided to back off and was made to retreat back into the waterhole with his tail between his legs."
