With their thundering roar and predatory instinct, lions continue to rule the wilderness with pride. Today, on World Lion Day, Indian Forest Services (IFS) officer Praveen Kaswan shared a video featuring a family of majestic creatures. The clip, uploaded on Twitter, has been shot at the Gir National Park of Gujarat, which is home to a large population of Asiatic lions. In the video, lions can be seen relaxing in the forest. The family also includes some cubs that are seen playing around.

“Here a beautiful family of Kings & Queens from Gir forest of India. Today is World Lion Day,” Mr Kaswan wrote in the caption.

At the time of writing, the clip had garnered over 22,000 views.

The IFS officer treated us to another video of lions out in the wild. “Lions are majestic big cats and live in a group called as Pride. Here is a couple having some good time,” the caption read.

The clips have left users amazed. One user called for the conservation of lions while marking World Lion Day.

Another user shared a video of a lion walking on a trail in its full glory. In the background, a man is also spotted on a bike following the animal.

This user was delighted to see the lions uninterrupted in their natural habitat. The user hailed conservationists and forest guards.

Some said the lions showcased the “real royalty”.

“The lion kingdom literally,” one wrote.

Indeed, we all can agree with this user.

World Lion Day is observed annually on August 10. The idea for the day was proposed by a group of non-profits and tourism companies to highlight the rapid decline in the lion population and inspire efforts for their conservation.
