While the world is in lockdown mode due to the rapidly spreading coronavirus, some stubborn people still refuse to stay indoors.
Playing their part, animals seem to come out of hiding to keep these sorts of people in check.
In Nepal, an intimidating rhinoceros came out to ‘inspect’ the lockdown situation in the country.
RT.com reported that a video of the wild animal strolling in the streets of Nepal quickly went viral after it was shared by Indian Forest Services officer Parveen Kaswan.
On duty
The video depicts a rhino "patrolling" the streets before encountering a man who was wandering outside.
So this #rhino thought to take things in his own hand. Went for an inspection. Btw rhino venturing out from forest happens a lot, even without lockdown. Forward. pic.twitter.com/Ck1sft3Emb

The man took one look at the rhino and fled for dear life as the rhino gave a brief, undecided chase.
It then continued its stroll nonchalantly.
The footage has garnered over 9,000 likes and over 120,000 views since it was posted.
