India shares its country with leopards, which is both a blessing and a curse. Another leopard-on-human attack has taken place, and left one man dead, and four injured, including a man that was scalped by the cat. The leopard strolled into Gauhati located in southeast India and started his rampage of killing. The Belfast Telegraph has a picture of the cat attacking a man.

I too have read Corbett's The Man Eating Leopard of Rudrapryag and The Temple Tiger plus Jungle Lore, all great reads. I'll check out the other books you've mentioned. Thanks.

the lions instead quickly learned that the clanging sound meant their home-delivery pizza had arrived.

Ditto with the quail (some pics on my page) around here. Since we supply birdseed, every time we open the back sliding door they come running in from the desert; when we open the metal food container, the squeaking noise drives 'em into a hungry frenzy.
