Dec. 2: A leopard was captured in the northern Indian city of Aligarh after it entered a school and attacked a student.
The student, who suffered minor injuries, said he ran out of the classroom when he saw the animal hiding there.
The five-year-old leopard was eventually tranquilised and captured after an 11-hour long effort. Officials said the leopard may have strayed into the school from a patch of forest nearby.
Leopard-human confrontations have become regular occurrences in India, as shrinking habitats force the animal to search for food in villages and cities.
