In an extremely challenging operation, forest department officials reunited a four-week-old leopard cub with its mother at Film City in Goregaon East. The mother turned out to be C33-Delta, a leopardess that had been radio-collared by the forest department and released last year. C33 is known to lurk between Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) and Aarey Milk Colony but despite roaming close to human settlements, she tends to avoid people. 

On October 12, mid-day reported on how a security guard had saved the cub from stray dogs on Monday morning and handed it over to forest department personnel.
