Dog gets trapped inside toilet with leopard for hours in Karnataka

This photo was taken from outside through a gap in the window. It is a leopard and a dog stuck together since this morning inside the toilet of a house in Kadaba, Dakshina Kannada district. I am told the leopard escaped at 2 pm and the dog is alive! pic.twitter.com/hgjJhaXW03

The owner of the house immediately bolted the washroom from the outside and alerted the police.

Sharing a video I received from the spot. After the leopard and dog were spotted inside the toilet in the morning, curious passers-by joined forest department officials to figure out how to catch the leopard and release it to the forest. pic.twitter.com/9dLzlxTUOO

Despite the forest department’s efforts to trap the leopard using a net, it broke free and fled.

A plan was hatched to trap the tiger in a net from the top of the toilet. But the leopard proved to be too strong, broke free and ran away. pic.twitter.com/ZFZgtDWkH0

The locals identified the dog as ‘Bollu’ and wondered why the leopard did not attack the dog. Take a look at some of the reactions here:

Such a miracle!!
