"I heard some strange sounds near me. First I thought it was my pet dog and then I put out my right hand outside the mosquito net and I ran my hands over the leopard thinking it was my dog. When I opened my eyes, I was shocked to see the leopard sleeping next to me. I managed to run out and called forest department," Ramakrishna said.
Forest department officials reached the spot and captured the leopard. They shifted it to Mysuru Zoo's Chamundi Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation center.
