In response to leopard sightings in Marol and Dindoshi, where the large cat was strolling around the society’s premises, the forest department has put in place cages to capture the leopard. On Saturday, mid-day had published a report in which it was stated that shortly after a leopard was sighted in Marol, footage of a big cat roaming on the terrace of a bungalow in Malad East has scared residents of areas surrounding Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP).
MLA Sunil Prabhu has written a letter to Forest Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar asking him to instruct the forest department to take appropriate measures. Sources from the forest department, who did not wish to be named, said that the Forest Minister’s office has informed the Thane Forest Department to set up trap cages at both locations to capture the leopard.
