BENGALURU: The elusive black leopard of BRT Tiger Reserve in Chamarajanagar district has resurfaced, bringing much cheer to conservationists.
The animal was first spotted in August 2020, and had disappeared. The melanistic cat has been captured in camera traps set by wildlife scientist Sanjay Gubbi and his team. According to forest officials, black leopards are largely seen in Kabini, Bandipur or Dandeli forests, along with similar documentation from neighbouring Tamil Nadu's Mudumalai forest.
