By Sagay Raj: A leopard was caught on camera attacking a pet dog near Rampura village in Karnataka’s Ramnagar district. The entire incident was recorded on a CCTV camera located in the area.
The dog, which was the pet of a man identified as Govindraju, retaliated to the attack and defended itself. After a few seconds, the leopard, which had come from the forest area near Govindaraju’s house, retreated and ran away.
The leopard, which saw that the dog was tied up to a pole, pounced on the pet and attacked it ferociously. The pet dog defended itself. After a scuffle lasting less than 10 seconds, the leopard retreated and went back into the forest from where it had come.
Upon hearing the sounds of the struggle between the dog and the leopard, a few people who were on the terrace of a house immediately rushed to see what happened.
However, by this time, the tied-up pet dog had chased away the leopard that attacked it.
