Watch: Tiger spotted swimming in the Brahmaputra, gets rescued from island later
The tiger was safely evacuated from beneath rocks in the island of Umananda where it had taken shelter.
A full grown Royal Bengal tiger is found swimming in middle of Brahmaputra River in Guwahati. Tiger is now taking shelter in a rock gap in Umananda Temple in middle of the river. To my surprise, if he came swimming from Kaziranga in Assam, then he has crossed 160 km alone!! 🐯 🐅 pic.twitter.com/6qfzlFFrnJ
