A one-year-old female leopard was captured near the BEML campus at Koorgalli this morning. The feline had strayed into the campus in search of food and had terrorised the residents since the past 10 days. CCTV cameras proved the presence of the leopard and accordingly, a cage was placed.
According to forest department officials, they got a call from BEML security guards at 6 am today that they heard loud roars of a leopard from the cage. Soon, a team arrived and covered the cage with plastic sheets so that the leopard does not get disturbed seeing humans around it. Later, the animal was sifted to Nagarahole National Park.
