Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): A Six-year-old male leopard was found dead in bushes of an agricultural field near Kurro Pipariya village of Sarda Beat in Sihora forest area, Jabalpur on Tuesday.

As soon as the local residents of the village saw the dead leopard, they immediately informed the forest department.

Acting on the information, a team of forest department officials rushed to the spot and sent the body of the leopard to Veterinary college for the post mortem.
