Singing to meerkats is one thing. Singing to a tiger with no fences?

I have posted numerous videos from Plumes, a young man who sings to animals, wild and domesticated.

The tiger here was born blind. Surgeons helped him have the return of partial vision in one eye. He is 21 years old and lives in a sanctuary,, cared for by Briggette, who helped him learn to adapt to his blindness. His name is Atilla.

I really love this clip thank you it's almost spiritual
@Mindful I think it IS spiritual. When we approach each other with fear, it can lead to violence. Or instead, we can enrich each other.

I still think I would want some pretty healthy bars between me and that cat . He could accidentally take my leg off just reaching to scratch his ear.
@bowman81 yes, that’s true. But he didn’t. I don’t know if I have the courage to test those boundaries. Guarded by someone with a cell phone would not quite do it for me, I fear.

I would freak the heck out if a tiger were that close to me.
@Justmeraeagain I’ve actually been that close to a tiger. I didn’t freak out, but only because I didn’t want to draw his attention.

I couldn’t believe it then and I can’t believe it now. Our vet had a big cat rescue and we took the tour. The cats were homed in the box stalls of a barn, with outdoor access to huge heavily fenced “runs.” During the tour, the vet stopped at a box stall and opened the stall door. The tiger who lived there came out to the open door and the vet talked about him. We were in a barn just feet from an unrestrained tiger. The vet stuck his fist into the tiger’s mouth. To be fair, the tiger didn’t bite him. At least that time.

@Mamapolo2016 I think the keywords are "At least that time." Yikes
@Justmeraeagain I said, “Yikes”and other words all the way home.
