A leopard was captured in a cage in Jalpaiguri district, marking the third rescue in the area within a week. The adult male leopard was trapped in Kuthabari village while attempting to prey on a goat. Forest officials have set up multiple cages since a fatal leopard attack last August. Wildlife experts attribute such incidents to dwindling forest cover pushing leopards into human settlements.
