In a similar incident, a male leopard was rescued on Friday by staffers of the forest department after it fell into an open well in Goa's Sattari. The animal had strayed into the human settlement in search of food and fell into the open well near a house.
The rescue team pulled the animal out of the well using a trap cage. It was then examined thoroughly by a veterinary doctor, who confirmed that the leopard was in good health.
