In an incident, four forest workers had a brush with death after they were rounded up by a tiger and a tigress from different directions at the Satpura Tiger Reserve in Madhya Pradesh in India.

The forest workers had gone inside the forest to count the vultures when they had an encounter with the unexpected guests.

On seeing the felines, three of them managed to climb on a tree while the fourth who failed to climb the tree, hid behind a bush. On seeing the felines approaching towards him, the fourth forest worker fell unconscious.

One of the Tigers ran towards the bush but couldn’t trace the man and only licked his mobile phone that was fallen on the ground.

By the time, the deputy ranger had arrived on the spot on a jeep. On hearing the sound of the vehicle, the Tigers ran away.

A forest worker who happened to be on the tree top took out his mobile phone and captured the horrific encounter.

In the video, one of the felines can be seen roaming below as it runs towards the bush.

The tiger keeps roaming below the tree as the men watch the Tigers quietly and wait for them to leave the spot.

The deputy ranger later picked up the unconscious forest worker on a jeep and took him to the forest office safely. Nobody was injured in the incident.
