Belgian software developer Stefan Cruysberghs photographed the tense attack at Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve, one of the largest national parks in the state Maharashtra in India. The 38-year-old, of Lommel, Belgium, says: “During our drive we stopped at a waterhole and three sambar deer were drinking in the middle of the pool.
