Wildlife ranger’s epic battle for life as he WRESTLES with a leopard after it mauled six people in village rampage
It took three tranquilliser darts before the raging big cat was finally caught
INCREDIBLE images shows a wildlife ranger’s epic battle for life as he wrestles a leopard that mauled six people in an Indian village rampage.
A 12-member team attempted to trap the animal in a home’s entrance by entangling it in nets before it makes a sudden escape.
The animals leaps over a wall, and jumps from one man to another in a bid to escape the clutches of the rescuers.
As it rounds on the ranger, he appears to try and entangle the creature in a rope.
Thankfully, none of the victims suffered serious injuries, but it was several hours and two more tranquilliser darts later before the beast was finally caught.
ASTONISHING FOOTAGE
Footage shows the leopard going berserk and continuing on to maul at least six people as it rampaged around the village.
Rescue officials arrived after locals raised an alarm on seeing the predator hiding inside a house.
After authorities tried to tranquillise the big cat, it suddenly jumped over a wall and began tearing around the village.
In the video, dozens of people are seen running away from the dangerous animal.
The leopard can be seen pouncing on a man and trying to maul him using its mouth and paws before releasing him and taking down another horrified local.
The forest officials tried and failed twice to stop the carnage using a tranquilliser gun.
It was only on the third tranquilliser that the animal began to feel the effects.
Khushwinder Singh, a local forest official, told CNN: “We shot it with three tranquillisers but it worked only after the third one was fired
