     They're not really trying unless a few people actually get mauled to death.

     I I would have shot the leopord the instant it made a threatening move. Why risk a life over a leopard that is obviously very aggressive and is most likely going to injure someone.

     The guy NOT wearing the helmet got it.

     Those who would put animals over people have lost their instinct of self-preservation. They are no longer allowed to breed because apparently animals are more important to them and I'm calling them out on it.

     No doubt! Plus the Local govt. will sell the meat at market, and sell all the body parts to the asian's so they can make up some stupid medicine that doesn't work, further encouraging the black market trade in animal parts...

     Love you're idea. The world would be such a better place if you had to get a permit to breed.

   Poor critter. Yes the environment of so many animals is being destroyed – it's horrifying. They should have blow darted it and took it to the jungle.

     That leopard was in the jungle. It's the shantytown that sprang up like an unbeatable fungus. If people consistently used birth control all over this planet (including right here in the USA), we could all live peacefully together. Stop invading the jungle. Shantytowns and suburbs are equally evil. No, I don't have any children and never will.

   that's one big kitty. Shame they had to shoot it, but a single leopard can do a lot of harm in a settled area, particularly at night time.

   Yeah, maybe they could have done better than some guys in flip flops that can't button their shirts?

   I have a nice jaguar jacket, but I really want a full-length leopard coat.
   Should I go to India to shop for it?

    Hopefully one or more of the 6 victims was a Mooslim. If they were Hindu or Budist, prayers to the family.

    Props to the dude standing on the top of the van with his gun staring point blank at the beast. He saved some serious lives.
