HASSAN KARNATAKA – A Karnataka man from Hassan District discovered a dehydrated leopard and, to rescue the leopard, strapped it to his two-wheeler to bring it to a veterinary facility. Venugopoal aka Muttu, 25, saw the leopard in the corner of a farm in Bagivalu village, Arsikere taluk, Hassan district. He stood there for a time, watching the animal.
He approached it when he saw the leopard was too weary to move. The leopard had wandered onto Venugopal’s farm in search of food.
