Morning walkers in Mumbai were left delighted when they were greeted by a beautiful sight of deer prancing around at the Sanjay Gandhi National Park on Wednesday. A video of the incident was shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda.
In the 59-second video, a large number of deer were seen moving swiftly from one part of the forest to another. Meanwhile, a few joggers were spotted standing patiently at a distance to not obstruct their movement. Many also captured the incredible sight on their mobile phones.
Mr. Nanda shared the video and wrote, “As usual, Mumbaikars are in a hurry. This splendid sight greeted morning walkers at Borivali National Park in Mumbai. Count if you can.”
