The leopard is one of the five species in the genus Panther, a member of the Felidae. The leopard occurs in a wide range in south-Africa and parts of Asia. It is widely distributed in most of sub-Saharan Africa, but the historical range has been fragmented in the course of habitat conversion.
They are also found in Pakistan:
In my city Abbottabad they have attacked on many people. According to my village people recently they have attacked on a women who was in the forest with her Cattles .
I have also seen Leopard in in my village. i don,t visit my village to much but one night i was with my cousions and my friends , We heard terrifying sound in our garden. it was late night time nearly of 11 P.M .It was a winter night and it,s raining alot that night. we came out from the room and my cousion has a gun in his hand. We look out here and there but we saw nothing and we went back into the room and start playing cards again. After some time we heard that voice again but this time it was much more louder.
I got afraid , My cousion was a break man he went out in the garden and two of my friends also went along with him . Then the most terrifying thing happen they saw the two leopard standing in the garden. the leopard saw them but there are in safe place where leopard can,t attack on them . but my friend got terrified but my cousion used to live in the village he was a brave one. he has a gun in his hand and fire on the leopard but he missed.
After hearing the sound of the bullet fired by my cousion people in the surrounding get out from there houses but they were late. leopard has already gone. My uncle came near to me they saw i was terrified and shivering with fear, they hug me and said relax. It is very common here we usually saw leopard here but he never attack on human. He Attack's on our pet animals .
but this day was the most terrifying day of my life. It was the first day when i saw a leopard without bars. i have seen leopard many time in zoo and this time i saw a real one with terrifying voice and blood finding eyes.
I did,t sleep that night and i was thinking about the leopard all the night , why he came here what he wants . These thoughts made me more terrified.
but in the morning I got the answer of my questions. why he came ??In morning i saw our faithful dog was missing and he never came back.
