A video that went viral on social networks has caused a lot of sensation. In it you can see between 10 and 12 lions walking near a gas pump at night. Seeing this scene, Internet viewers are horrified and fascinated, because such a scene is rarely seen. This video is claimed to be from the Gir region of Gujarat, which is the only natural habitat of Asiatic lions. Due to the increase in the number of lions, they sometimes begin to appear among the human population as well.
However, this incident does not occur for the first time. Even before this, lions have been seen walking with their families in villages in the Gir area many times, so an atmosphere of fear persists among the locals. People are still cautious about leaving their homes, especially at night.
In the video that is going viral, you can see that at midnight, the driver of a car gasped when he saw a group of lions near the petrol pump. Fortunately the guy was inside the car, otherwise anything could have happened. However, he recorded this horrible scene on his phone, the video of which is becoming increasingly viral on social media.

This video was shared on Instagram on an account called @wildtrails.in, which has been liked by hundreds of people so far. However, from people’s comments in this video, their fear and concern are clearly visible. Many users say that the government should consider security measures so that lions can be prohibited from carrying out such activities in residential areas.
One user commented: Oh God. They walk the streets like dogs. It seems as if they are trying to migrate from the jungle to the city. Another user says: I like ferocious cats, but I would not like to witness such a spectacle, rather I would not live in a city where lions roam freely through the streets.
