A CCTV camera installed in a building near Sanjay Gandhi National Park captured footage of an adult male leopard casually walking through the premises. A local resident told Mid-Day that such sightings are fairly common due to the building’s proximity to the park. Residents are aware of the situation and are taking necessary precautions to avoid any negative encounters between humans and the leopard. #urbanleopards #sgnp #mumbai Mid Day

Wildlife photographer and naturalist Darshan Vengurlekar has documented a rare behaviour among the golden jackal, spotting a canid feasting on jackfruit in Malvan, Sindhudurg district. The golden sighting took place a few days ago. “We have often seen jackals eating fruits found on the ground like mango, cashew, jamun, bor or karvande.Jackals do not have to work hard to eat them. But eating fruits with shells requires more effort, that is why jackals are not often seen eating jackfruit or coconuts. This behaviour was rare, so we immediately documented it,” Vengurlekar tells us. Video credit: Darshan Vengurlekar #wildlifeconservation #jackal #maharashtra #malvan

This video is allegedly from Battis Shirala in Sangli district. Disappointing to see live Indian Spectacled Cobra snake shows during #NagPanchami passed off as "awareness." True education means respecting snakes—not handling them for stunts that endanger both animals and people. #WildlifeConservation Kedar Gore Pawan Sharma PETA India MoEF&CC Maha Forest Official kaushal.d.dubey Wildlife Crime Control Bureau
