i feel sad for the leopard.
no wildlife management has ever been more emasculated and headless in the annals of time and i am ashamed of them.
no government has ever been so callous towards its natural resources as consecutive indian governments.
and no people have ever been so cruel and insensitive than the great accomodating indian.
note that in this case, there were no kills on the leopards part, nothing, yet he was chased and killed!!!
its sad.

Man should 'nt the PETA people be concerned about the real threats to animal and spread awareness to the local / tribal people residing adjacent boundries with forests so that they stop lynching of endangered animal species.

umm...... Well no but they are too busy to see that airguns in india dont see the light of another day, while real threats to animals in danger goes unnoticed from ther radar, i wonder if they will even comment on these two recent reports.
