There was a strong breeze, which is unusual during a winter night in Gujarat. “u won’t need them. It will come right down there, next to the cow,” village leader Hitesh Patel whispered in my ears. I felt like asking him if it was safe on the roof where we were perched, but then Vitthal Vasava said. “You will see it any moment. Stay still and don’t make any noise or you’ll invite trouble” The leopard was closed to within ten meters, it seemed there would be no escape for the cow. However, what I saw was something else – totally baffling. The leopard ducked under the cow’s neck, stretched out lazily and began to purr. At first the cow ignored its companion but eventually started licking its fur as if it was one of its calves. It started pushing the cow’s belly and after a while, crept under her neck and lay there as if resting. Then it stood up and slowly walked back to the riverside. What could have caused this extraordinary behavior [20]? It turned out that, about three years ago, a female leopard had given birth to two cubs in a sugarcane field. The villagers had spotted the family and had brought it to the Notice of the forest officials. A few months later, a female leopard was captured in the area and taken to the zoo. There was no report of the cubs. The people believed the leopard that has been frequenting the village every night and playing with the cow might be one of the two cubs.
