The mystery of the leopard spotted in SEEPZ on December 9 has finally been solved as the big cat was found from Aarey. It had been rescued after entering Woodland Crest in Marol in April this year and released in SGNP.
The big cat, reinforcing the homing tendency of the species, however, had found its way back into Aarey. The fact was ascertained when the forest department matched the rosette patterns of the SEEPZ leopard with those in the Aarey database.
