A leopard in India’s West Bengal state has injured a man as it was fighting its way out of netting used by locals to trap the animal.

Footage shows the locals attempting to trap the leopard after it strayed into a residential area. The animal managed to escape.

Now, officials say they are not aware of its whereabouts. Activists believe the increasing human population has depleted the habitat of wild animals and this has forced them to stray into human settlements.
