At least once in your life, some of you may have wondered, ‘what would I do if a lion randomly ran towards me?’
A video posted by Indian Forest Service official Susanta Nanda on his Twitter account shows a lion running berserk through a village, which the tweet identifies as Madhavpur in Gujarat. Though it is unclear when it was actually recorded since Nanda shared the 7-second-video it has collected more than 5,000 views.
The recording shows a human-animal interaction, one that Nanda has praised by stating, “Where will you find tolerance for each other, other than India?”
In the video, as the animal charges, most people quickly move aside while others partake in the all important task of recording the whole incident for the likes of ourselves. Nobody tries to run after, catch or hurt the lion. Simultaneously, the lion doesn’t try to interact, in any form, with the many humans present on the street.
Many Twitter peeps were concerned about the safety of the big kitty, to which Nanda responded by saying that it was ‘pretty safe’.
