A video showing an entire pack of lions running for safety after a herd of elephants approached them is going viral on the internet. The video was shared on Monday on Twitter by a user named Lance, and since then it has garnered more than 1.4 million views and nearly 40,000 likes. 

In the video, a pride of lions is seen sitting together as an intimidating elephant herd approaches the scene. Seconds later, the spooked lion cubs are suddenly seen scuttling off the view, and matriarchs join them in no time. However, one gritty lion stands its ground in a short-lived staredown with a rather big herd strutting its way through the forest.
