A video showing an entire pride of lions running for safety after being approached by a herd of elephants is going viral on the internet. The video was shared on Twitter by a user named Lance on Monday and has since collected over 1.4 million views and nearly 40,000 likes.

In the video, a pack of lions is seen huddled together as a frightened elephant herd arrives at the scene.
