Locals in Jafrabad Port, Gujarat were recently treated to a rare sight — a lion prowling along their shoreline. Residents of the mostly fishing village spotted the lion on a rocky outcrop along the coast on Saturday.
The lion was most likely an escapee from the Gir Forest National Park.

Video footage shows the lion looking back at the crowd of people that had gathered to watch it, then jumping into the choppy waters of the Arabian Sea.
When the lion started to swim away towards the (seemingly endless) horizon, locals called park officials. The lion was then rescued, tranquillised, and transported to an animal care centre.
Watch the entire, riveting video here:
This majestic animal, today found nowhere but India, lives in prides comprising of one male lion and anywhere between two to five females.
