Reply With Quotethe villagers get pissed and try to get revenge on the cats. they are protected and just get relocated even if they attack people. one was burned alive in a cage a while back in uttarakhand as revenge for attacking 10 people.

(Pictures!) Leopard mauls 11 in fierce fight at Indian village
I just thought it was cool they actually had pictures to go with one of their pointless front page news stories.
Leopard mauls 11 in fierce fight at Indian village
APAP – 1 hr 33 mins ago
KOLKATA, India (AP) — A snarling leopard mauled 11 people in an Indian village and terrorized wildlife officials trying to drive it away before it was tranquilized and died of injuries from the fierce showdown.
Forestry officials were forced to flee, dive for cover and even climb up on a jeep to escape the adult, male leopard's attacks in West Bengal state.
At one point, the big cat leapt through the air, fangs bared, and tackled a man, clutching him in its giant paws as it knocked him off the wall he was standing on.
The wildlife officials — wearing protective helmets and carrying batons and tranquilizer guns — had hoped to drive the cat into a nearby wildlife sanctuary after it wandered into the village near Siliguri, about 373 miles (600 kilometers) from Kolkata.
But the leopard stood its ground, crouching on a wall, hissing and attacking those who came near.
It injured six villagers, a policeman and four forest guards before being hit with a tranquilizer gun Tuesday. The people are recovering from their injuries, mostly swipes from the cat's claws.
Forest official Dharma Dev Rai says villagers used knives, stones and batons to beat back the cat.
The cat died within hours after the showdown, and a post mortem is being conducted.
Leopards are protected in India, though more are straying into villages for food.

I love getting high, I hate getting low, and I like to drive my truck down a muddy dirt road.
I'm a great believer in luck and I find that the harder I work, the more I have of it.

I'da choked that mother out....
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

As do I. I love animals and nature, and I generally hate people, so I love it when animals attack people. I cracked up when I say the picture #5.

Cats are smart. I'm pretty sure those are to protect from neck and facial bites.I never find the time to find another place,

They're probably a bigger deal in Indian villages than anywhere else. Originally Posted by SloppyJ

LOL @ those clowns. More proof that man and wild animals don't mix.
