Seen this a few days ago.

Been re reading a few Corbett books of late (hunted man eaters post WW1 in India).....a 100 years later and Tiger and Leopard still claim a few folks every year.

More than a few I've heard, for the leopard.  Jim was a wreck by the time he retired from pussycat puncturing, by his own admission.  I can't imagine the strain that takes on your nerves

Still surrounded by mysticism and unknown numbers of deaths in places. But Leopards especially are killed frequent in retaliation, by some estimates about one a day in India.

Bet that's going to leave a mark.....
