Watch: Police personnel creates green corridor for tiger, video impresses internet

A video of police personnel creating a green corridor for a tiger to cross the road has been winning hearts on social media. This clip comes at a time when man-animal conflict has increased including road accidents involving wild animals.

Shared by Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Parveen Kaswan, the video captures police officials stopping commuters at a signal on both sides of the road and asking people to remain calm while the big cat walks by.

The video opens with a police personnel halting commuters at a signal on both sides of the road. He further urges people to stay quiet and not startle the animal.

The camera then pans towards a tiger standing at a distance. As soon as people halt and try to move a step back, the big cat is seen emerging from the forest by the side of the road and slowly walking out to cross the road.

People on motorcycles and cars are also seen capturing the unusual sight on their mobile phones. The tiger takes its time to cross the road as vehicles wait patiently for it to go back into the forest on the other side of the road.

“Green signal only for tiger. These beautiful people,” the officer captioned his post. He further conveyed his gratitude and appreciation to the police officials and the public there.
