Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru

Mangaluru, Nov 3: A leopard attacked a farmer who had gone to cut grass in the morning at Elathur near Kinnigoli, on the outskirts of Mangaluru city.

For the past week, residents in this area have been on alert due to reports of a leopard sighting.

On Sunday, November 3 morning, the leopard suddenly attacked Ligori Pereira (58), a resident of Kalkare. As a result, he sustained injuries to his face. Ligori managed to escape the leopard attack and was taken to the hospital for treatment.

The Elathur region has a large population of farmers, and today’s leopard attack has left villagers in fear. Locals are urging the forest department to capture the leopard.

    Leopard is a wild animal .At present their population is increased ,have no food in forest ,and now started to search in city whatever they get.When persons go to their vacanity and they have cubes ,naturally they attack.Forest dept.must look into this take steps soon as possible.Otherwise they will attack people during day too.Very scary .Go only when its more sunshine is there.

    Poor Ligori had to face Wrath of hungry Leopard.....perhaps Leopard was looking for Ligori's Dog for dinner....Ligori saved his Dog...this must have annoyed Leopard hence this attack.....Kinnigoli comes under Mulki Police Station ....they should file a FIR and try to arrest Leopard and produce him in Court for BAIL hearings....Tak...Takk...

    human beings have destroyed the earth for their selfish gains..no other species accumulates wealth...they just live day in day out..now the things are hitting back....time is not far when the animals will walk ferociously in cities and attack the humans and prey on them
