Wildlife officials rescue leopard from residential area
Anand:
Wildlife officials in Gujarat's Anand district rescued
a leopard after it strayed into a residential building.
The leopard had entered a crowded locality of Gujarat
Industrial Development Council area, causing panic among
the residents. Residents said that the leopard was roaming
around the area for some days. "Some days back residents
of Syedpura village saw the leopard, after that people
again saw the same leopard on AC Foot road in Anand district,"
said S.K Srivastava, district forest warden. In recent
years, incidents of wild animals straying into urban areas
have increased owing to loss of their habitat with human
settlements extending to forest areas.
