A young leopard caught in a cage inside Aarey Milk Colony last week is a sibling of the big cat that is suspected to be behind the series of attacks on the locals in recent weeks. The trapped animal could be fitted with a chip, said officials.

“We have plans to radio-collar the leopard that was trapped from Aarey Milk Colony but it depends on the availability of the radio collar,” said Principal Chief Conservator of Forest–Wildlife Sunil Limaye.
