<p>The police have been searching for a woman who had visited the New Jersey zoo and was caught misbehaving with the big cat and almost landing herself in trouble with her improper acts.</p>

<p>In a video, the woman was seen hopping the fence of a tiger exhibit and reaching too close to the big cat.
