Tinged by Vijay Kumawat in Ranthambore National Park,” the organisation wrote as they posted the video on May 10 and has been widely viewed.

One of the viewers commented:

“These two know each other. That’s probably why the male was so restrained in his response and why the female held her ground to the extent she did, she knew he was unlikely to actually hurt her, and he didn’t actually want to hurt her.”
