Karnataka records 1st ‘Sandalwood Leopard’: Ultra-rare strawberry-coloured big cat previously seen only in Rajasthan
A unique 'Sandalwood Leopard' with a pale reddish-pink coat has been spotted for the first time in Karnataka's Vijayanagara district. This rare colour morph, previously seen only once in India in Rajasthan, is believed to be due to a genetic condition. Conservationists are thrilled by this discovery, highlighting the state's rich biodiversity.
