Bengaluru Safari Resumes After Leopard Attacks, Safety Upgrades
A park in Bengaluru called Bannerghatta Biological Park has a safari where you can see leopards.
Recently, two visitors were a little hurt when leopards tried to reach them through the windows of the safari bus.
The park has now fixed the small holes in the windows so leopards can't stick their paws through anymore.
Because of these new safety fixes, the safari is open again for people to enjoy.
The park says they also check the buses regularly to make sure everyone is safe.
Safari at Bannerghatta Biological Park in Bengaluru has resumed after two leopard incidents.
Small gaps in safari vehicle windows have been fixed to prevent leopards from reaching visitors.
A 56-year-old woman was injured in a leopard attack on November 13, 2022.
A boy was also injured in a similar incident in June 2022.
The park assures regular safety checks and driver training for safari vehicles.
