A leopard was chased away by two dogs in the Adgaon Shivar area of Nasik when it tried to attack the two sleeping animals. The incident was caught on CCTV camera.
The CCTV footage showed that a leopard slowly sneaked into the lawn area of a residence and tried to attack the dog sleeping outside the main door of the house. However, another dog woke up and started barking at the leopard and both the dogs chased the wild cat away.
Later, the big cat returned to the spot but was again chased away.
