Leopard's final comment, "Thank you" or "Hate you"?

Felix de Mel Saturday, 05 December 2020 12:47 PM

To Leo! Both, but still, it is confused as to whom It should hate

Great work. Hope it's not too injured. Have the people who put up the trap been charged.? Next task - remove the landfill that's along the traditional migration route of the elephants

More and more of this being reported these days... elephants, leopards and other priceless wildlife. In the 21st Century we still see this crap over and over again. Hey fellow citizens - START GETTING TOUGH ON THE PEOPLE WHO TRASH OUR WILDLIFE AND RESOURCES! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! There are no more excuses for finding "trapped" leopards in Sri Lanka! Give us all a break.
