Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): A leopard cub died after being hit by a vehicle on Friday night in the Dumna area of Jabalpur. Jabalpur's veterinary hospital in-charge Dr Rajesh Sharma said that the leopard cub was about one and a half years old.

"The cub died last night after colliding with a vehicle, it has been brought for post-mortem here," said Dr Sharma.

Wildlife specialist Manish Kulshrestha said that the cub was lying on the road and there were tire marks around it.
