In the video, a lioness and her cubs can be seen making way for a biker like a 'civilised' animal. People are going crazy over the basic road sense shown by the lioness and her cubs in the viral video, with many calling them more civilised than people on Indian roads.
The viral video

This #viralvideo shows a #Lioness & two cubs moving away to give way to a biker on the way to his farm near a village on the outskirts of #Gir sanctuary. It is amazing to see them respecting humans' space. @ParveenKaswan @SanctuaryAsia @WWFINDIA @susantananda3 @NatGeoIndia pic.twitter.com/9yPM7Vvldc
