Panther Attack Ends in the Sweetest Way Possible

In a video posted by the Black Jaguar White Tiger Foundation, a deadly panther stalks and then pounces on his prey, which just so happens to be Eduardo Serio, the man who runs the foundation.

Serio is speaking to a cameraperson who is located behind a glass barrier as the panther slowly and methodically approaches him. Only when the panther, named Kal-El after Superman’s birth name, is directly behind Serio – just a foot away – does he make his daring move to attack.

This attack, however, is short-lived, as Serio and Kal-El are actually friends.

Serio turns around and playfully tussles with Kal-El. The two go back and forth and the so-called attack ends in a series of kisses and licks.

It turns out Serio is actually Kal-El’s rescuer, according to Today, and the cameraperson, who is also an employee at the foundation, didn’t warn Serio about the ambush because he knew the two were friends.
