New Delhi: On social media, a video clip is going viral about a tiger protecting a man from a leopard.


The video shows zookeeper Eduardo Serio pampering the big cats. However, the very next moment a leopard comes charging from behind to attack Serio in all possibility.

But to Serio's surprise a heroic tiger named Aztlan, jumps in and swats the leopard away in the nick of time.

The footage was shot at the big cat zoo in Mexico City and uploaded on YouTube.

Reportedly, this is not the Serio’s first close call with these animals. Earlier also another video went viral in which a jaguar tried to sneak up from behind.
