National parks provide humans with a closer view at wildlife because all of the wild species are roaming free in the enormous forest. However, when visitors enter these parks, they occasionally disturb the animals or attempt to approach them too closely, which infuriates them. In the past, numerous videos showing animals charging at tourists have surfaced. Now, in a related incident, a startling video depicting a narrow escape of tourists from an enraged rhino at Assam's Kaziranga National Park is making the rounds on the internet.
In the viral video, a rhino can be seen chasing safari jeeps as they race away from danger. The footage depicts the enormous creature following them for a distance of a few kilometres as the tourists inside the moving vehicles scream in terror.
According to PTI, the rhino came chasing the vehicles inside Bagori range of the Park and brushed against the tyres of the rear jeep.There was no report of any injury among the tourists. The mark of the rhino's teeth was later seen on the rear tyre of jeep and the authorities suspect that the animal must have received injuries in the mouth, due to which it veered around and retreated into the nearby grasslands.
The report also stated, "The family of Utpal Bordoloi from Duliajan was in the last vehicle and his daughter Sneha Bordoloi captured the entire chase in a video that has gone viral."
