The video has garnered hilarious reactions from social media users in the comment section.

“Hence proved, Apni gali mein toh kutta bhi sher hota hai,” commented a user.

Another user wrote, “It seems this village has more lions than humans.”

A third user wrote, “Lion’s right decision to move forward instead of getting entangled.”

“This proves that jhund me toh kutte nikalte hain. Sher akelta nikalta hai,” commented another user.

A few months back, a video of at least eight lions parading through the streets of a village in Gujarat had gone viral. Their visit, however, passed off without any mishap as the entourage disappeared into the darkness without causing any harm to any animals or humans.
