Hey there, folks! So, here’s the latest scoop – a leopard skin was recently seized under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972. Yup, you heard that right! Leopards are on the protected list, known as Schedule I of the Act, which means that any kind of trade, sale, purchase, or possession of their skin or any other part is a big no-no.
But wait, there’s more! The authorities didn’t just stop at seizing the specimen. Oh no, they also apprehended three individuals who were involved in this illegal activity. The whole gang was then handed over to the District Forest Division in Akola for further investigation under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972.
Looks like the law is cracking down on those who try to mess with our wildlife. Stay tuned for more updates on this wild story!
