Jumbo Mistake! Tuskers Mistake Camouflaged Car Cover for Lunch By NEWSLIONS MEDIA Two wild elephants trudging through a residential area in search of food, had their eyes lit up when they spotted a strange-looking patch of greenery. Curious, one of the jumbos rushed towards the 'green patch', probed it with its trunk twice, and then left in a huff. Visibly disappointed, the tuskers had mistaken the camouflage-patterned car cover for a patch of greenery. CCTV footage shows the elephants leisurely strolling down houses-lined, narrow streets. The video of the elephants has since gone viral on social media, attracting widespread attention and amusement from viewers. In light of the incident, officials have issued a warning to residents about the use of camouflage-patterned car covers. They cautioned that such items could attract curious elephants, who often wander into human-populated areas in search of food.

Bitten By Russell's Viper, Fearless Man Catches Deadly Snake, Brings it to Hospital By NEWSLIONS Team In a striking and somewhat surreal scene in northern India's Bihar, a fearless man made his way to the hospital while clutching a live Russell's viper—one of the deadliest snakes on the planet—immediately after being bitten. This remarkable incident unfolded in Mirachak village, located in the Bhagalpur district, on October 15, and has since captured the attention of many. As the man, identified as Prakash Mandal, 48, staggered into the Jawaharlal Medical College Hospital (commonly known as Mayaganj Hospital), the sight was both alarming and awe-inspiring. Visuals from the scene depicted Prakash walking with a noticeable gait of pain, yet exhibiting an extraordinary level of composure. He maintained a firm grip on the snake by its neck, a clear testament to his bravery—or perhaps his desperation. The atmosphere in the hospital corridor was thick with tension as both staff and fellow patients gazed in disbelief at the unusual sight unfolding before them. Many were visibly distressed, some even retreating from the scene as Prakash battled to stay conscious, determined to hold onto the serpent that had just inflicted a life-threatening bite. Reports indicate that Prakash was bitten not once, but twice by the venomous snake before he managed to capture it. #RussellsViper #SnakeBite #Bravery #WildlifeEncounter #India #HospitalDrama #SurvivalStory #Nature #SnakeSafety #BiharNews #NewsLions #ViralVideos #UGC [If you wish to license this video, write to editor@newslions.com]
