Ropar, December 22

A leopard got entangled in chainlink fencing of a farm in the Nurpur Bedi area today.

Wildlife Department Range Officer Mohan Singh said they got information in this regard around 6 pm. On reaching the spot, it was found that an adult leopard was trying to get itself free from a chainlink wire in which its legs had got entangled.

Senior officials were informed and a team experts was requisitioned to rescue the wild cat, he said.

District Forest Officer (Wildlife) Dharamveer Dairu said it was an adult leopard and was agitated as its legs had got entangled in the wire and also due to the presence of a large number of people.

A team of experts from the Chhatbir zoo was expected to reach late at night.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
