A clip of a lioness opening the door of Safari car has left people with goosebumps. The bone-chilling incident happened when a family was watching a group of lionesses from their safari car in Africa. However, in a surprising move, one lioness got up and eventually moved towards the car. According to the clip, the lioness successfully managed to open the unlocked door of the car.
'Maintain safe distance from animals'
However, before the lioness could do anything, one of the passengers managed to shut it and lock it. The video was recently shared on Twitter by IFS officer Susanta Nanda who warned people that this could happen with anyone and asked them to maintain a safe distance from wild animals.

The video shows a family of lions crossing a narrow stream in Gir National Park.
