This is the moment when a terrified trespasser stared death right in the face.
The crouching man was killed by the tiger at the New Delhi zoo on Tuesday after slipping into the big cat’s pen.
“The tiger grabbed the youth and killed him,” said Amitabh Agnihotri, director of the National Zoological Park in India’s capital.
Witnesses said the 19-year-old victim, identified only as as Maqsood, looked into the bloodthirsty cat’s eyes for what seemed like an eternity and begged for mercy.
“The man was cowering in fear and appeared to be pleading with folded hands to the tiger to spare him,” a witness said, according to Sky News.
Despite the pleas, the rare white tiger grabbed Maqsood by the neck and dragged him to a corner of its enclosure, which also houses five other white tigers.
