The one thing that humans thought made them different from animals was that humans were civilised. But this video shared by Rajya Sabha MP and Reliance Industries Limited Corporate President Parimal Nathwani of a lioness with her cubs on a road proves that wild animals too have basic road sense.
The video that is from the outskirts of Gir sanctuary, Gujarat, was shared with the caption, “This #viralvideo shows a #lioness and two cubs moving away to give way to a biker on the way to his farm near a village on the outskirts of #Gir sanctuary. It is amazing to see them respecting humans’ space.”
The 36-second video shows a lioness coming out on a kachha road from inside the jungle with her two cubs following her. After the three cross some distance, a farmer comes in front of them on a bike from the other direction.
The farmer stops his bike and the lioness silently goes back into the forest area and her cubs follow her. The way the lioness gives way to the biker in the video has the internet amazed.
IFS officer, Susanta Nanda also shared the same video with the caption, “Ours is a Civilised country. So are our lions.”
After the video was shared on Twitter, it went viral garnering over 1.8k views and hundreds of retweets within hours of sharing. The rare video has left twitterati praising the lioness. Have a look at the comments.
