A surveillance camera at a home in India captured footage of a leopard sneaking up on and attacking a dog lying on a rug on an outside balcony.
Video shows the leopard grabbing the dog, leaping off the balcony and trying to run off with it only to be foiled by the pet owner, whose screams and chase of the animal was enough to prompt the release of the dog.
Once it was freed from the leopard’s grasp, the dog quickly ran in the opposite direction.
The incident occurred on January 20 at 3:22 p.m. in the municipality of Coonoor, Tamil Nadu, according to Newsflare.
Nature Is Metal posted the video on its Instagram account. Newsflare also shows the video. (Note: To view on some servers, you might have to click on the link.).

Nature Is Metal reported that the dog escaped with no injuries, saying, with a bit of humor, “The man was never seen again, but the dog made it out OK.”
