if it had been a nice car going down in a bog, you can bet your cotton socks, there would have been any amount of experts and heavys to save it, cranes, tractors, satelite communication and what not but because this was just an animal no one responsible really cared.

beacuse the natives in this stupid colony we live in just dont seem to realise the value of what they have.

Money can buy Gucci, Lamborgini, Porshe what have you , - they are anywhere.

But these treasures are all we have and we are stuffing them..

the story ?

This full-grown leopard was caught in a trap set in the jungle off Angurumulla in Gampola, died after a futile 15-hour struggle to escape. The villagers who had heard the growling of the writhing animal had found it with a noose tightening around its neck, but were afraid to go near it. Some people had rung up the Police on its emergency number 119 and the Wild Life Department. But neither police nor Wild Life officials had turned up and the animal had died after hours of agony.“The leopard could have been easily saved if it was released from the trap,” villagers had told our correspondent.- story and photos - http://www.dailymirror.lk/2007/05/24/caption_story.asp
