Guys, its a known fact that leopards are shy animals and usually refrain from any contact with humans unless they have turned into man eaters , or they not getting enuff food .
Sam might remember that we told him when he came to Kotgarh that when u spot an leopard ( which is pretty common in our area ) , the best thing is to look away and carry on walking . Ive had three experiences -- once I was on the bike at 11 pm , I took a turn flat out only to have a leopard in my path , only I know how I avoided hitting the damn bugger -- other i was in a van so not much threat -- 3rd was when 2 of us were walking back at night to my house ... we saw him at the last min , he was about 10 ft from us -- we literally did yellow our pants , but we didnt break intoa run -- just looked the other way -- prayed - and carried on walking . And we are both safe and sound ....... Though its the BEAR that Im terrfied of .. not BEER but the animal BEAR , he attacks for no reason .
Us humans have taken over their habitats so chances of human - animal inter actions have gone up . I don't blame them ..... |
