A King’s Guard horse bites a tourist after she touches the animal while posing for a photo.
What Happened?
Video footage, which has gone viral on social media with over 855,000 views, shows the woman putting her hand on the horse’s neck while posing for a photograph.
The horse then swings its head towards the woman before clamping down on her saree.
The King’s Guard are generally not allowed to interact with the public, but may shout if they get too close or present their bayonets if they become aggressive
This is the most recent in a string of incidents where tourists have been bitten by a Guard’s horse on-duty.
Earlier this year, a female tourist who went in search of a photo with one of the famed Guards got a lot more than she bargained for when it bit down on her jacket and would not let go.
