How do lions come to the streets of Gujarat
The Gir region of Gujarat is the only natural home of the Asiatic lion. It is known for the Gir National Park. It is spread across Junagadh, Amreli, and Gir Somnath districts and covers an area of about 1,412 square kilometers. Apart from lions, leopards, deer, nilgai, chinkara, sambar and more than 300 bird species are found here.
In the Gir areas of Gujarat, lions are often seen on the roads because the distance between the forest and residential areas is less. Lions come to villages and roads in search of food and water, especially during times of rain and waterlogging. Due to the increase in human activities in the natural habitat of lions, lions also come near human settlements. Due to which their presence is seen on the roads.
