Junagadh: Lions are spectacular creatures and people
from all over the world flock to lion centuries in Africa and Gir in
Gujarat, as they spend hours with guides on safaris in order to catch a
glimpse of the big cats in the wild.
But while the king of the wilderness may look majestic in the jungle,
bumping into one in an area inhabited by human beings can be
terrifying.
A video showing two Gir lions roaming around near a town in Junagadh
district of Gujarat is doing the round on the social media, as it shows
one moving out of sight after being caught on camera, the other is seen
walking unfazed.
While such sightings are not rare in the villages and towns close to
the Gir Forest National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary, it does reflect how
human settlements can get in conflict for animals as seen in different
parts of the country.
