    For an \(n\)-dimensional orientable Riemannian manifold \(M\), the author considers the tangent sphere bundle and the bundle of oriented orthonormal frames over \(M\), endowed with the natural Riemannian metrics defined by the Riemannian connection. Let \((M, g)\) be a connected, orientable Riemannian manifold. Then there exists a natural homomorphism between the Lie algebras of fiber preserving Killing vector fields on these bundles. Finally, the case of dimension two is considered.
