Big cat rescue: Leopard saved from 80ft well

Experts staged a daring rescue after a young leopard got stranded in an 80ft well - using a crate and ropes to lift the animal out.

The two-year-old was found in an Indian village after locals in heard its cries last week (25/5).

They called Wildlife SOS, a charity, which sent three workers.

The team worked for half an hour to rescue the distressed leopard, which is now being nursed back to health.

Video shows a crate being lowered into the well, into which the animal then climbs.
