Commuters on a motorway in Qatar's capital, Doha, were astonished to see an escaped tiger on the loose and walking through three lanes of traffic. (on the loose: 탈주한, 안 잡힌)

Photographs and videos posted on social media showed the confused animal apparently trying to get off the road after falling out the back of a lorry. (fall out: ~에서 떨어져 나가다, 분리돼 나가다) (lorry: 트럭) 실려있던 대형트럭 짐칸에서 떨어져 나간 후...

The tiger had a chain around its neck and appeared to be someone's pet.

The tiger was eventually recaptured, and four men were reportedly spotted bundling it back into the lorry. (recapture: 다시 잡다) (spot: 동사로 자리에 배치되다.) (bundle sth back into~: ~로 묶어서 집어넣다. bundle: 명사로 꾸러미, 묶음.)

One video posted on Facebook showed the animal falling out of the back door of lorry that was driving down the Doha Expressway before running off. (video: 동영상)

Another video published on Twitter saw the tiger later making its way past cars stuck in heavy traffic.

Footage of the animal finally being recaptured was posted by the al-Watan newspaper. (footage: 녹화필름)

Twitter users said the incident took place on Tuesday morning, but this could not be confirmed.

It is not clear who owns the tiger, but wealthy individuals in Qatar are believed to keep the animals as pets. (individual: 명사로 개인, 형용사로 개인의.)

Columnist Sultan Al-Qassemi tweeted: "This obsession of keeping wild animals by rich kids in the Gulf has gone too far." (obsession: 집착, 강박) (go too far: 너무 멀리나갔다, 즉 지나쳤다.)
