Four Siberian tigers roamed through a village in northern China, leaving residents in fear.

The CCTV footage was filmed in Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in Jilin Province on March 8. A large tiger followed by a smaller one playfully engaging with it, were seen lounging unabashedly in front of the camera.

Despite the security system's flashing lights and warnings to vacate the area, the tigers remained unfazed, with one opting to lay motionless and another moving slightly away to rest again.

By 17:42, the tigers had left the monitored area, only for the larger tiger to be spotted lying on a nearby path at 17:47, soon joined by three more tigers, including the one previously out of sight. The group then sauntered off into the distance, leaving the villagers in awe of this unprecedented visit.

Mrs. Jiang, a villager, remarked that while occasional tiger sightings had been recorded by their surveillance before, witnessing four at once was a first for them.

The following day, at 18:32, another tiger made its appearance, instilling a sense of fear in the villagers, many of whom now hesitate to venture out at night.

This area of Jilin's Hunchun has grown accustomed to the occasional tiger visit, with the majestic predators sometimes sneaking into villages for an easy meal.

随着生态环境的改善，不少野生动物也开始出现在人类活动的领域，其中不乏一些猛兽。
3月8日17时38分左右，吉林省延边朝鲜族自治州珲春市庙岭村附近，村民发现有四东北虎下山活动。
村民家的监控画面显示，先是一只大老虎来到门口的空地上直接躺下，随后是一只小一些的老虎过来，还给大老虎打闹。这两只东北虎横卧在监控前区域，监控发现有异常情况，闪灯且发出警报声：“此区域禁止逗留，请速离开”，但这两只东北虎丝毫不惧，其中一只甚至动都懒得动，另外一只大一些的老虎则起身走到不远处再度卧下。
17点42分，村民门前空地上的老虎起身离开了监控的视野。
17时47分，大老虎仍在另一旁小道上躺着时，从边上又下来三只老虎，包含之前离开监控视野的另一只老虎。随后四只老虎结伴走向远处。
村民蒋女士称，前后一共四只老虎，以前监控也有拍到过老虎，但一次性数量这么多的，还是第一次。3月9日18时32分，又有一只老虎出现在监控区域，现在自己很害拍，晚上几乎不敢出门。
据了解，吉林珲春这一带老虎也是常客了。当地人早就见怪不怪了，这些老虎偶尔还会偷偷溜进村庄，找些家禽牲畜打打牙祭。东北虎是世界现存身材最魁梧、最漂亮的老虎，自然分布在中国东北和俄罗斯西伯利亚林区，但由于过去过度采伐森林、炸山开矿，东北虎的栖息地被破坏，东北虎一度出走俄罗斯。近20多年来，我国林业生态工程，特别是天然林保护和野生动植物保护工程稳步推进，环境大幅改善，于是又吸引了东北虎回来。但需要提醒的是，东北虎一来是国家保护动物，二来它们本身也是肉食动物，如果有幸遇到，确保安全的前提下及时离开为好，千万不要去招惹。
