An individual wrote, "His fuses went blank after knowing what happened." A second shared, "I have seen this many times during childhood. Instead of dogs, they took goats from our village." "That is a huge leopard. I doubt he would've attacked the man had the dog not been there. Jim Corbett's book gives a real insight into big cats' behaviour. Leopards are real smart, which explains how they've adapted to living in such close proximity to humans," expressed a third.
