The relevant city’s metropolitan population is approximately “Brisbane’s plus Adelaide’s” – well in excess of four million humans.
It is a safe bet that its “other large mammals’ combined population” would comfortably exceed that of all Australian cities.
What you are looking at would be “inconceivable” within an Australian CBD, but to those who reside in Rajasthan’s capital (and largest) city, this would be an unremarkable sight.

Having purchased some delicious snacks from the ground-level cafe, we had walked back a little, away from the counter, to enjoy them in the open air.
I looked up.
Looking down from the upstairs walkway above the cafe was this post’s heroine.
”Her, upstairs”, was not at all surprised by the presence of (some, very surprised) Australian humans, downstairs.
To local resident humans’ eyes, the electrical wiring would also seem “absolutely normal, no cause for alarm”.
