Leopard Kills 1-Year-Old in Gujarat
A little girl who was only one year old was very sadly hurt and killed by a leopard in a place called Gujarat.
This happened in the evening when she was sitting next to her mom who was cooking.
The mom tried to scare the leopard away and even hit it, but the leopard still took the baby away.
The girl's body was found near their house, which is close to a wildlife sanctuary.
The forest and police people are now trying to find the leopard and have set up special cages to catch it.
The girl's dad is a worker from another state in India.
Just two days before, another little girl was also hurt by a lioness in a different part of Gujarat.
In another part of India, in Jaipur, there have been many leopard sightings recently.
The forest department is trying to catch the leopards, but some people think the department is not doing enough to keep the leopards away from people's homes.
A 1-year-old girl was killed by a leopard in Gujarat's Amreli district.
The incident occurred around 6 pm on Thursday in Trambakpur village.
The girl's mother tried to shoo away the leopard but was unsuccessful.
The girl's body was found near the house, 3 kilometers from Amreli wildlife sanctuary.
Forest and police personnel have set up seven cages to trap the leopard.
