VIDEO: Tiger Falls Asleep On SUV Roof, Uses Spare Tire As Pillow

The lion may sleep "in the jungle," but this tiger prefers to nap atop a car. In a video recently posted on YouTube, a tiger falls asleep on the roof of an SUV after climbing onto the vehicle. Seth Rotherham captured the exceptional sight on camera at the private game reserve Tiger Canyons.
The vehicle's passengers, one of whom has his window down, appear to be rather calm as the tiger grips the tire and cuddles with it.
"At least he didn't bite one of the other wheels. Then we'd be in big trouble," the driver, sanctuary owner John Varty, appears to quip in the video.

The footage skips ahead and follows the vehicle as Varty slowly drives it down a dirt road in hopes that the tiger will jump off, which he eventually does.

"I couldn't believe it when he started to sleep while we were driving along. That's the first time I've ever known this to happen," Varty told the Austrian Times. "I couldn't get him off until I went over some really rough ground that he didn't like."
