An ultimate bond of Human & leopards
Have you ever heard that leopards and other animals live together with humans, without causing any harm to each other? Well, here Jawai is a great example of it. The majestic big cats are neither strangers nor dangerous to the villagers of Jawai. In spite of humans, porcupines, wild hares, and rarely langurs make for the food for leopards.
Sometimes, they also eat the cattle, but for such episodes, the government has provisions to compensate for the loss of a farmer. If a leopard kills cattle, after an autopsy the government pays rs 20,000 as the loss of farmer. In the case of goat, the compensation is just rs 3000 under the Van Dhan Yojna. However, villagers consider these killings as offerings to God because they regard the leopards as sacred. Although, it’s hard to believe that the leopards also visit the temple in Jawai and hence are known to be Babaji’s Leopards.
