WATCH: Pride Of 8 Lions Walk Down The Street Of Gujarat, Viral Video Shocks Netizens
The animals do not look much bothered about their surroundings as they take their time and walk on the empty street.
A video has surfaced online that shows a pride of lions roaming on the streets of Gujarat. Shared by Indian Forest Service officer (IFS) Susanta Nanda on his Twitter handle, the 45-second clip shows a group of eight lions walking down the road at night.
The video seems to be from a residential area of Gujarat. Nobody can be seen walking on the same road but one can spot blinking headlights of vehicles approaching.
"Another day, Another pride... Walking on the streets of Gujarat," read the caption of the video shared by the IFS officer.

"It is obvious that the Gir sanctuary is overflowing with lions, and some of them must be translocated elsewhere," wrote another user raising concern.
