SB 10.15.13
cakora-krauñca-cakrahva-
 bharadvajams ca barhinah
anurauti sma sattvanam
 bhita-vad vyaghra-simhayoh

Translation:
Sometimes He would cry out in imitation of birds such as the cakoras, krauñcas, cakrahvas, bharadvajas and peacocks, and sometimes He would run away with the smaller animals in mock fear of lions and tigers.

Purport:
The word bhita-vat, “as if afraid,” indicates that Lord Krsna played just like an ordinary boy and ran with the smaller forest creatures in mock fear of the lions and tigers. Actually, in Vrndavana, the abode of the Lord, the lions and tigers are not violent, and thus there is no reason to fear them.
