Today in Haskhowa, India, a fully grown male wild leopard fell into a water reservoir tank at a tea estate and was subsequently rescued by the Sukna Forest Rescue Team from the Mahananda Wildlife sanctuary, who lowered a net into the tank, allowing the leopard to climb to safety unharmed.

"Okay, this looks promising..."

the leopard clings to the net, looking a bit freaked out
"Holy shit, what did I get myself into?"

the leopard climbs the net
"All right, get me the fuck outta here already."

the wet leopard climbs to safety over the edge of the reservoir
