In the video, a Rhinoceros is seen locking horns with a huge elephant. In the video, a huge jumbo is seen on one side while an adult rhinoceros is seen right in front of the elephant. As the elephant slowly marches ahead, the rhino starts taking steps backwards.

However, the rhino seems not to be in the mood of leaving the battle. It stands still to face off with the jumbo. Though the elephant seems to be carefree, the rhino suddenly attacks the elephant. The pachyderm on high alert defends itself from the attack immediately by stepping back.

Next, the jumbo charges ahead slowly while the rhino is all set to face the attack. Suddenly, the jumbo stretches out its trunk and attacks the rhino making it fall to the ground. The elephant keeps its tusks on the rhino for a while. Failing to defend and fight the elephant, the rhino leaves the place.

The video shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Services (IFS) official Susanta Nanda has gone viral on the internet with several users sharing the video. With garnering over 64K views on Twitter, the video has also invited several hilarious comments from netizens.
