A leopard was spotted with its head stuck in a plastic container in Thane district recently. A substantial number of officers including the leopard rescue team from the Sanjay Gandhi National Park were stationed for the rescue. The animal was found, tranquilised and rescued. As per reports, the animal is recovering.

This shines a light on tourists whose behaviour has been termed as irresponsible by an official in a report in this newspaper. That is an understatement. It is criminal to enter the forest illegally and apparently party of all things.
