Leopard cubs rescued on Bengaluru outskirts
A group called People For Animals (PfA) rescued four baby leopards near Bengaluru.
The cubs were very young, about 5-7 days old, and were found alone and thirsty.
They were taken to a hospital for animals where doctors checked them and gave them special food.
The group thinks the mother leopard might have left because of people being too close.
They hope the mother will come back to her babies.
A forest officer told them about the cubs, and the rescue team got there quickly to help.
People For Animals (PfA) Wildlife Hospital rescued four leopard cubs on the outskirts of Bengaluru.
The cubs, aged 5–7 days, were found dehydrated and transported to the hospital for medical care.
Ultrasonography confirmed no internal injuries, and the cubs were stabilized with nutritional support.
The rescue was initiated after an alert from Ravi, Deputy Range Forest Officer, Karnataka Forest Department.
The PfA believes the mother leopard may have abandoned the cubs due to increasing human presence.
