A leopard was found in a severely injured state on a patch of private land and was rescued by forest officials in the south Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
The incident took place in a farm field in Sirumugai village, Mettupalayam, Coimbatore district on June 14.
The video shows officials conversing before carrying out the rescue operation. They were seen preparing a dart and later snares, before several officials carry the subdued leopard to a cage.

The big cat had suffered a deep cut on its back, believed to have occurred while trying to cross a sharp wire mesh.
According to local reports, the leopard was found injured by nearby residents, who informed forest officials to rescue the beleaguered cat.
