A leopard which strayed into a school in Mumbai's Goregaon was rescued successfully by the forest department. The incident took place on Tuesday and its photos have now surfaced online.
News agency ANI too posted the photo of the leopard inside the school. It spoke to forest department official Girija Desai, who said that the animal got confined in the washroom.
"There is a forest-like vegetation nearby. The leopard entered the school campus last night & got confined in a washroom. We've rescued the leopard," Ms Desai told ANI.
Wildlife Welfare Association (WWA), a non-governmental organisation (NGO) working in Thane and Mumbai, shared a clip of the incident on its Facebook page, which showed the tranquilised leopard being moved from school's washroom to the forest department vehicle.
