A viral video showing a leopard hunting a stray dog outside a residential society in Mulund triggered concern among residents, following which teams from the forest department and wildlife experts visited the locality as part of a primary response, an official said on Friday.

Leopard sightings and incidents of the big cats preying on stray or community animals are not uncommon in areas located along the periphery of Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) and Aarey forests, Resqink Association for Wildlife Welfare (RAWW) founder-president Pawan Sharma said.
