The big cat bites at the dog’s neck as the canine desperately wags its tail.

But in a surprising turn, the leopard abruptly retreats, appearing startled, and bounds away from the scene in Mount Abu, Rajasthan, India, last Friday (November 15).

Moments later, the dog’s owner rushes outside, quickly ushering the shaken but unharmed pet indoors to safety.

The incredible escape was reported by vknews24 and highlights the resilience of the plucky pooch in the face of a life-threatening predator.
