Udupi: The Forest Department personnel rescued a leopard, which had accidentally fallen into a well at Karmara Jeddu near Kuthyaru here on Wednesday January 13.
The leopard had fallen into the well belonging to Girija Moolya a resident of Karmara Jeddu near Kuthyaru. Family members spotted the leopard in the morning and quickly alerted the Forest officials. As the news spread, locals rushed to the spot in large numbers to have a glimpse of the rare visitor.
The Forest officials conducted a swift operation by lowering a cage with chicken in it. When the leopard entered the cage to grab the chicken, the cage door was closed by the officials.
