The drone footage gives an extra special look to the eight Siberian tigers chasing the drone. The group of tigers became obsessed with the drone and followed it around the enclosure. They were all fascinated and were even bumping into each other as they couldn’t take their eyes off the flying object.

Eventually, one of them leaps into the air and sweeps the drone onto the ground, where all the tigers gather around and start to rip it apart. However, after discovering it was not tasty, they all lost interest.

Siberian tigers, also known as Amur tigers, are the largest subspecies of tigers and are native to the forests and taiga of Siberia, Russia. They can grow up to 11 feet in length and weigh over 600 pounds. Siberian tigers are listed as an endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) due to habitat loss, poaching, and fragmentation of their population. It is estimated that there are only around 500 Siberian tigers left in the wild, making them one of the rarest large mammals in the world.
