when I was in college in Mumbai (~1995) we had a leopard on campus. was a fairly disconcerting few days before they caught it. (the campus had a lot of wilderness areas so it was easy for it to hide)

Was there any serious consideration of tag and release? or when you say "capture" do you mean catch, tag and release? Ecologically speaking, it might be better to leave a viable cat in place than remove it and make a territory to fight over. This is why feral cats in some cities are chipped, speyed and released (they cut an ear to mark it sterile)

  no idea what they did, they just issued an all-clear. i'm guessing they tried to relocate it to some more remote area.
