The tiger even uses its paws to scratch the vehicle just when someone in another vehicle pulls down their window to shoo away the tiger but the wild cat pays no need to them.

The video, which is being widely circulated on Whatsapp, was shared by Twitter user @MonaPatelT. The video is said to be shot in Bannerghatta National Park in Bengaluru.
