The male leopard will be released in his natural habitat soon

Boisar locals have caught the culprit - a male leopard, whose series of attacks on strays and cattle in the area had been giving them sleepless nights. The spotted cat was trapped in the wee hours of Wednesday, after he had attacked a calf, when he walked into the cage that had been set up for him. In September 2017, a leopard had attacked a calf and pet dog, after which the forest department had installed camera traps in the area.
