Question
How did the captain’s behavior change in front of cameraman?
Solution
The cameraman was constantly ordering the captain to shift and move or to step back and manoeuvre the tiger from out of range. The captain did not like being ordered around but in front of the cameraman he became rather submissive. The tiger found it unbelievable for the captain to be taking orders from others and could not understand what had happened to him. The captain actually who disliked taking order from others venged all his feelings of resentment on the poor tiger. The captain then would crack his whip and ordered the tiger to stand up but since the cameraman was never satisfied and wanted the tiger to improve, the captain would blindly carry the cameraman's orders by hitting, whipping and yelling at the poor tiger.
