Leopard Attacks Four, Kills One

Leopard Attacks People In House In India | Pictures, Photos: 


"A man has had part of his scalp ripped off by a wild leopard, which became panicked and attacked four people when it walked into a bustling residential area in India.


The fully-grown leopard set upon the group when it walked into a house in a busy neighbourhood of Guwahati, a large city in north east India.


Dramatic photos show the leopard lashing out at a man, identified by Indian media as a cook named Hari, whose scalp is severely cut as he tries to fend off the animal."


According to a later report, one victim (not the one pictured here) has died of his injuries. The Indian Forestry Department blames this urban invasion on illegal deforestation, which it believes forced the animal from its jungle habitat. The leopard will be released into a remote jungle are.
