JAMMU: A leopard was captured in Doda district of Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday, a wildlife department official said.
A trap was laid in remote Nalwah Ghat about a month back after locals reported frequent movement of the leopard from a nearby forest into the village and attacks on their animals, the official said.
The leopard’s capture came as a big relief to the villagers.
The iron traps set up in the village have not been removed as some more leopards are roaming in the area, the official said. (PTI)
