YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe saga of the Man-Eating Leopard of Gummalapur took place in the 1950s. A female leopard turned to man eating after a forepaw injury inhibited her from going after her typical quarry.
The she-leopard was dubbed “shaitan” by those she considered prey. In this context, Shaitan means “evil spirit,” “demon,” or “devil.” Indeed, her human prey believed her to have supernatural abilities, and this notion was most deserved.
Her modus operandi was particularly abhorrent. Unlike tigers who prefer wait in ambush and take men and women in broad daylight, Shaitan attacked during the “witching hour,” enter a home through the roof, and steal a person through the same hole she entered. Sometimes, without even waking other residents of the shelter. Shaitan indeed.
Finally, a hunter named Kenneth Anderson endeavored to end her paranormal reign of terror, and excise her from the realm of the living, a feat that he would’ve failed, and possibly lost his own life in the process, were it not for the help of an enduring little friend he made along the way.
I hope you enjoy,
