A thrilling jungle safari turned into a hair-raising experience at Bannerghatta National Park , Karnataka , when a leopard made an unexpected move, attempting to climb onto a safari bus . The heart-stopping moment, captured in a viral video , has sparked massive attention online, with social media buzzing over the chilling encounter.
In the video, the leopard can be seen scaling the side of the bus, peering in through the window as startled tourists look on.

Tourists can be heard screaming in the background, clearly shaken by the close call.
An X user who shared the video captioned it with a mix of humor and caution: “Come face-to-face with leopards in its near-natural habitat at Bannerghatta Biological Park #Bengaluru. Its the only safari in #India!! Visit soon, except Tuesdays, before they come visit an enclave near you.” The video has since racked up over 220 million views, with reactions pouring in from all corners.
Some users voiced concerns about safety during such safaris. One user commented, “A tiger once dragged away a little girl from her grandpa’s lap, I cant believe that is a possibility even now.” Another chimed in, “They should not offer food to animals that’s why they expect and rush towards them.” Others emphasized the importance of staying quiet to avoid startling wild animals, with one remarking, “People need to learn to be silent so as not to scare wild animals. Enjoy the scene instead of shooing them off.”
The incident reportedly occurred on a Sunday, when a safari bus stopped for a closer look at the majestic creature. According to officials, the tourists were initially frightened but soon mesmerized by the leopard’s unexpected appearance. Despite the initial panic, it turned out to be an unforgettable experience for all involved.
