Panic as Lion Storms Village, Kills Cow then Roams the Streets - photos+video
Many residents of an Indian village have been shocked after being made to watch in disbelief as a lion stalked the narrow streets and killed a cow in broad daylight, Daily Mail UK reports.
The dangerous creature ventured into the Virpur-Gadhia village in the Amreli district in India leaving open mouthed locals terrified and hiding in doorways as she devoured her feast.
Onlookers can be heard screaming in footage caught by one scared local from a first floor window which has since gone viral online.
The video shows the huge mammal parading around the streets, with the bloodied corpse of the cow laying lifelessly at the side of the road.
The ferocious lion only stops eating when a truck tries to prompt her to move by driving slowly behind her.
Screams then intensify as onlookers worry about what the beast could do next as it reverses on itself and walks up the street which is aligned with people either on balconies or siting precariously on low walls.

But the lioness decides she has had enough drama for the day and walks off back into the forest.
But villagers have revealed that wasn't the end of the incident.
She returned later after night fell at around 7pm to finish off the leftovers from her meal.
The village of Virpur-Gadhia is located around 6 miles from the nearby Gir Wildlife Sanctuary where the lioness is believed to have come from.
They are often spotted in the outskirts in the forests, but they rarely make their way into populated areas.
Villagers said they informed the forest department about the incident.
Deputy divisional forest officers worked to capture the lioness safely, without using tranquilisers to release her back into the forest, adding that she has "never attacked a human to date" and is used to seeing them.
