A leopard was rescued in Madhya Pradesh on Sunday, and a picture of the big cat has now been turned into a meme by Twitter users. The leopard had reportedly been spotted near IIT Indore multiple times before it was captured on Sunday by forest officials.
News agency ANI shared three pictures of the big cat on Twitter, where one of them in particular has captured netizens' attention. The picture in question shows the leopard baring her teeth for the camera but still managing to look goofy instead of terrifying while doing so. It was shared along with two other images that show the leopard in a cage after being captured.
