On December 1, a leopard with minor injuries was brought for treatment to Indore's Kamla Nehru Prani Sangrahalaya zoo from Burhanpur district, but it sneaked out of the cage, remained elusive for six days. On Tuesday, the leopard was found near the forest rest house in Navratna Bagh.
Forest Minister Vijay Shah had expressed displeasure over the disappearance of the leopard and action was taken to gear up the search process.
A team of 200 employees was deployed, CCTV cameras were scanned, and sniffer dogs were deployed to track the leopard. Six days later the injured cat was found in a forest guest house near the zoo. It was found to be severely dehydrated and was immediately administered saline.
