Bokaro: A leopard died after it fell on a trap of iron wires laid by villagers to catch wild boars at Bhimtari village under Gawan Block of Giridih on Sunday morning. Divisional forest officer (DFO), eastern circle, Prabesh Aggarwal said a person has been arrested in connection with the incident. The leopard had come to the river at night when it fell into the trap. However, it died because of the delay in rescuing on the part of the forest department. Villagers informed Gawan forest ranger Anil Kumar in the morning, but the rescue operation was not conducted on time, which lead to its death. The DFO said the leopard had reportedly died of suffocation after it was stuck in between the iron wires.
