CCTV footage shows wild leopard preying on pet dog in Sri Lankan town
Remarkable CCTV footage has emerged showing the moment a wild leopard entered a residential area in Sri Lanka to pounce on a pet dog.
Images filmed from a shop's security camera on February 9 in the Nuwara Eliya district show the big cat dash out of a tea plantation and seize the sleeping dog.
Another dog raises the alarm but the big cat drags its prey back to the tea estate.
Wild leopards in the area often stay onto the streets to look for food and regularly prey on domestic animals.
