"A villager showed us a video of the leopard that he had captured. Our veterinarian feels the animal appears to be fit but still we have asked the people to update us if they see an injured leopard," added Hada. Officials have also installed camera traps to trace the leopard. Activists say it is time authorities started building underpasses to ensure safety of these animals.
