Three newborn leopard cubs die in West Bengal
Jalpaiguri
(WB): Three of the four leopard cubs which were born
in the Dooars region of West Bengal's Jalpaiguri District
were found dead 24 hours after birth. Workers of the tea
gardens owned by PCM Company spotted the three lifeless
tiny 'spotted beauties' on Friday. Reportedly, the mother
leopard had abandoned the cubs after delivering them on
Thursday. As per the 1997 census, India had about 7,300
leopards in the wild but conservationists say the number
has drastically dwindled over the decade.
