In a video shared on TikTok by @weeekend.27, a man's throwback of his visit to Belize in 2019 made rounds on the video platform. The man was inside a cage, and a leopard was able to walk on top of him. Despite the large barrier between them, the leopard found a way to get close enough to lick his bald head. The man was smiling, beaming about being close to the leopard.
TikTok users joke about man close to leopard
Many felt that the man was too relaxed about the leopard licking him. People joked that the big cat was getting the first taste of what he wanted as a meal. According to National Geographic, leopards and all cats have tiny spikes on their tongues called papillae. The man in the clip likely felt the rough sensation of the papillae, which primarily function to send saliva to their fur when cleaning themselves.
