Briefly translated from Gujarati

There is an open well, about 80ft deep, at Devipujak vas at Chotra village in Rajula Taluka in Bhavnagar district. It was half filled with water. Yesterday at about 2 AM in night a male lion of about 10-12 years ran after the stray cow to hunt. Accidently it ran over this well covered with galvanise sheets. As metal sheets were thin it fell into the well. RFO Munni and Jasadhar rescue team were called in the morning. the animal had minor injuries and was moved to Sakkarbag Zoo.
