Leopard that killed 450+ people was shot down by Jim Corbett




The world famous Mango tree where Sir Jim Corbett used to sit on his Machan. Infact it's rare to find a Mango Tree in the lap of Himalayas.This is the village where the pandit lived who was even attacked by the Leopard. The leopard made numerous attempt to kill the pandit. He also talked about a lot about the terrace farming and the Manadakini & Alaknanda river. He also described very well about the mountains accross the river. The Leopard has almost killed 450+ people in this area and he used to roam around in 300 sq km. Yes finally the Leopard was shot here by world famous shooter, Jim Corbett Sir.

Museum is being built here.

And my favorite book. Carried the book just for this click.

I am in the lap of Himalayas. I feel blessed.
