It was around 8.50 am and a very hot sunny day.

We were driving on a marshland and behind us there was a swamp.

Suddenly we realized that we missed an orange striped thing behind us. We stopped promptly, reversed our jeep and saw this huge tiger crossing the swamp.

When a Tiger walks, the jungle stands in attention.

He noticed our jeep and warned us with a killer look. We realised that it was his land and we were trespassers there.

It's my territory, Samuil captions this roaring image.
