Hills Wildlife Sanctuary in the same district recently.
The incident has occurred at a stone quarry belonging to Pradeep. The male leopard aged around 5 to 6 years, is suspected to have died about three days ago. The carcasses of a dog and cow were also found near that of the leopard, casting several aspersions about the nature of death of the wild animal.
