What was the unusual behavior of the leopard that intrigued Corbett?

The unusual behavior of the leopard that intrigued Corbett was that it attacked and carried away a boy in the middle of the day, which was unexpected as leopards typically hunt at night.

How did the leopard manage to enter the courtyard of the boy's house, which was surrounded by an eight-foot high wall?

The script does not provide specific details on how the leopard entered the courtyard, but it implies that the leopard's ability to jump such a height was surprising and a key point of intrigue for Corbett.

What was the woman's complaint about the village headman after her son was killed by the leopard?

The woman was angry with the village headman, accusing him of not coming to the rescue of her son. She believed that if the headman and villagers had intervened, they might have saved her son from the leopard.

How did Corbett explain the boy's death to the grieving mother?

Corbett explained that when the leopard clamped its teeth around the boy's throat, it must have held it very tightly, causing the connectors between the neck and head to break, leading to the boy's instantaneous death.

What was Corbett's strategy for dealing with the leopard after he arrived at the village?

Corbett decided not to wait by the dead body where the leopard had left it the previous night. Instead, he had the body moved to a peg in the middle of the courtyard and chained it there, planning to hide and observe from behind bundles of straw.

What were the two difficulties that prevented Corbett from sitting close to the dead body?

The two difficulties were the absence of a suitable place to sit, as it was a vast open area with no nearby trees, and his lack of confidence in sitting on the ground with nothing to protect him from a potential leopard attack.

While waiting for the leopard, Corbett felt something with a hairy coat walking on the straw over him, which he initially thought was the leopard. However, it turned out to be a soaking wet kitten seeking shelter.

Why did Corbett believe he lost the chance to kill the leopard after hearing the growling sounds from a distance?

Corbett concluded that the man-eating leopard had been driven away from the area by the local leopard, as evidenced by the growling sounds coming from a distant hill. However, he also surmised that the man-eater might return after recovering from any injuries sustained in the fight.

boy

but as he waits

to shoot the labor at night

a fight takes place between that man

eating labor

and a local labor

and he records his experiences of that

fighting

in this

essay

corbett

reached the village

in company with the head man

headman

accompanies him

and takes him to the house

where the child had been killed

now as he goes there he hears a woman

crying

grieving

obviously her son has been taken away

and she has been crying

she was the mother of

the victim was a boy

who had been killed by this man eater

the woman narrated to him

the entire incident of the killing

how the labor took away

her son

and how it killed him

she was angry with the mane of the

village

she accuses that

the main of the village did not come to

the rescue of our child

if they had come to his rescue

perhaps they could have saved the lab to

save the

child from this labor

she says my husband was very brave

before he was killed

by another leopard

so had my husband been here

he could have said he would have saved

my boy from the labor

but garbage says madam you are wrong

corbett says

when the leopard clamped his teeth round

the boy's throat

the labor must have held the

throat like this and when he clamped it

when he held it very tightly

the teeth must have dislocated the head

from the neck

this

you know

something that connects the neck to the

head

those connectors must have broken

so

he must have died

instantaneously

the boy must have died before the left

word carried him across the courtyard

corbett finds the whole incident very

surprising

corvette is surprised

a laypole comes

not at night

but in the middle of the day

carries a child

not a small child but a boy

but how no

nobody from the village

marks this leopard

and when the leopards visit you know

dogs have a very strong sense of smell

so

dogs must have barked

but how dogs even didn't park

how didn't people of the village or dogs

on the street mark him

he is surprised

besides

the wall around the house of that house

was some eight foot high

so how that leopard jumped over

so

high

how it entered the courtyard

how

it held its victim

how it jumped over the wall once again

and how it escaped

and everything how everything went

unnoticed

he's surprised to

experience him

all these things himself when he goes

and you know marks the scene examines

the scene he finds out

how this how the labor must might have

attacked the child

he finds all these things very

surprising

where had the leopard carried the boy

and how

this is very important this might be one

of the questions

the labor jumped down

the 8-foot wall guiding the house all

around the house

there was a eight foot wall

so the leopard jumped over that wall

went to the courtyard

killed the boy

with the boy it jumped over the wall

he dragged his body across a yam field

at the backyard there was a yam field

saru saru yami

saru there was a field

with yam plants growing growing so it

dragged them across that yam field

then there was another wall and this

wall was even higher

this was 12 feet in height

so that was first there was a 8 foot

wall

then there was a there was a vacant

space not not so not a vacant space but

where yam plants were going

beyond that

there was another wall and that wall was

12 feet high

beyond that there was a field

it dragged the dead body across another

field

and at the edge of these fields the

second field

it came across

a thick hedge of roses

rose plants a heads of roses they were

very thick

he must have searched for a opening so

that he could

carry because because the leopard is

carrying a dead body

and the dead body is not that of a child

dead body is that of a boy

so obviously he must be looking for an

opening

a hole through which can carry the

child he will carry that boy

and this hedge was some four feet high

his was some four feet high

it released the hole on the body's

throat the boy's throat it must have

left him there

it it went in search of some opening in

the hedges

came back

again

held the boy

by the throat

picked up the victim

and leaped across the lefty jump jumped

across the hedge

four feet to a wide edge

and it jumps across with the victim

in its mouth

carrying the victim

it crossed another wall

and this wall third wall was about 10

foot

in height

on the far side of the field on the

other side of the field on this side of

the field it was 12 feet

on the other it was 10 feet

so there was a cattle track at the foot

of the third wall

usually when cattle move

cattle walk for a long time people walk

for a long time a footpath is formed you

must have seen that across the field

also across a field

everywhere grass must have grown but

where

people frequently walk

regularly work a track is formed where

no grass grows

so there was a cattle track

now

when it had reached the cattle track

people of the village came to learn

that the boy had been carried away by a

labor

so gradually people of the village

started raising

their voices started giving the labor a

change they followed it

so it was compelled to now that he saw

people

uh

shouting people were following him

people had been accompanied with beating

up drums they were eating drums they

were fine some of them had gone

now they were firing guns

so the leopard dropped the dead body of

the child there

and

ran away

so beating of the drums and the firing

of bones prevented it

from coming to the dead body that night

why didn't corbett wait for the labor

at the place

where it had left the dead body so this

is the you know this is the situation

when corporate reaches the village

the boy boys dead body is lying there

it had happened the previous day it had

happened the previous day

so now corbett is informed

corvette goes there

exa means the scenes and situations

makes his guesses

what the leopard must have done and how

it must have carried the dead body

comes to a conclusion now the dead bird

is lying some distance away from the

house

now corporate says

i could have done two things

it was

sure i was sure

that the labored would come

the previous night it was unable to come

to the dead body

because

because of the drum beating by people

and some people were also firing they

are gone

so it was sure to come

after nightfall

so why why didn't he why didn't he

decide to sit there

there were two difficulties for which he

did not want to

sit very close to the dead body

one was the absence of a suitable place

to sit

it was a vast open area and the dead

body was lying there somewhere

he could have

sat on a tree

but there were no trees nearby

the nearest tree was about a hundred

yards away now if you seat at a place

which is hundred yards away

with a gone in your hand gone has a

range

besides you must be able to see that uh

see that leopard

clearly so that you could shoot at it

and if the labor came at night

how would you see it

you have to make some guesses

from the sounds it made

from the noise that was produced

you have to if it came at night you have

to make some guesses and

so if you are sitting far away from the

dead body how can you shoot at the

leopard

it was not a suitable place

secondly he was not confident about

sitting on the ground

with nothing to protect him it was an

open ground

so once you are sitting in an open

ground you expose yourself to a leopard

attack because you don't know from

where exactly it has gone

and from which direction it is going to

come

so even though you are having

a gone in your hand

you are not very sure that if you come

face to face with the leopard you are

going to use your

gun

properly

so he was not very confident about

sitting on the ground with nothing to

protect him

he reached the village

late in the

afternoon he had a cup of tea

he heard the mother's story

he

examined the scene

and all these things obviously took some

time

so no time was left for the construction

of a shelter if he had constructed a

shelter

and sat on it

close to the dead body

some

meters away from the dead body in that

case

it would have been a very wise move

but there was no time for that

if

so if he sat on the ground he would be

exposed to the attack of the leopard

and he was not

sure if he

saw the leopard face to face

or if the leopard attacked him

from some direction

whether he would be able to use his

rifle or not

so he

changed his plan

instead of waiting for the leopard

at the place where the dead body was

lying

he decided to do something he decided to

carry the red body home

so he asked the head man to get him four

things

a crowbar

sabor

a stout woodland peg

wooden pegs are

so that is a wooden peg

with a hammer and a dog chain

a chain to which a dog is tight you know

so four things he asked

the head man to bring him put a one

crowbar

one stout very strong wooden peg a

hammer and a dog chain

with the crowbar he dug a hole in the

meeting up middle of the courtyard

and drove

bed that hammered that peg

into the earth

and fascinator tied one end of the chain

he carried the dead body of the boy to

the peg

and chained it there now the dead body

is chained to the peg that body is lying

in the middle of the courtyard

and it has been chained to the peg with

a chain it has been it has been tied to

the peg

peg is that you know pole

he took a bundle of straw

he laid it

on the barinda

then he took

another few bundles

he put heaped it

in front of him so that

the label would not be able to see him

hiding behind the

bundles of stray

bundles of straw but he would be able to

see it

he got the dead body of the boy to the

peg and chained it there

he laid a bundle of straw on the buranda

he lay on the bundle

and heaped a little straw gathered a

little straw hipping his gathering

putting on one another

in front of him

so that

he had a clear view of the

leopard

but the label would not be able to see

him

he had a clear view of the dead body

and the tiger if it came

but he could hide himself quite well

because if the leopard saw him leopards

could see in the dark

but if he saw if the leopard saw him it

would run away or it might attack him

so

he was sure that the leopard would

seriously come

and take the dead body carry the dead

body

the dead body was lying there

labor had run away

so the leopard must come to carry the

dead body from where it had left him

but it was not there anymore

corbett had carried it to the

to its house

and it was now lying in in the courtyard

so when the leopard found that the dead

body was missing

it would surely try to attack

some other people

and and victimize somebody kill somebody

and carry him away

then

there was a storm

what sort of an evening

did the narrator have to face jim

corbett is the narrator

he says

by this by the time all these

preparations had been made

it was dark

it was night

at about eight in the evening

there was thunder and lightning

followed by then

first there was thunder there was

lightning and then there was rain

a storm raised for an hour

for about one hour there was a storm

after the storm what happened

usually the sky is overcast

patches of cloud can be seen in the sky

it's full of

patches of cloud

so now that the cloud patches of cloud

are there

visibility decreases you can't see

beyond a few meters

beyond a few

inches from your meters from you two

meters you you can't see what is up one

it is nighttime what it's already dark

this is a village this is a village

which is surrounded by forest so

obviously it would be very dark

secondly there is there was a storm some

time ago

then it passes a cloud in the sky so

obviously it's very dark

then you know

the narrator

describes a very interesting incident

that happened with him that terrified

him something very interesting but

something that that terrified him

he was lying on the straw

suddenly

when he was waiting for the labor to

arrive

and straining to hear some sound you are

careful

very kept straining his ears

to hear some sound

when the labor

comes

it doesn't make much of a noise

you know its

claws are padded

bad date so it will come very carefully

without

making a noise

so he was training his ears to hear some

sound very carefully watching

you know listening

is there some sound is there any sound

he failed something at this time when he

was waiting to hear some sound some

noise

he felt something creeping still dilly

over the straw on which he was lying

something was walking

something was walking on that straw

on which he was lying

and he could feel the hairy coat

coat is the

hair

skin with the hair of an animal

brassing against his bare skin

there was an animal

he could feel

its for its its hair on the skin

touching his body touching his legs

so the narrator thought

my god

my days are going to end i had come to

kill the leopard but i think the leopard

is going to kill me i think it must be

labor

it must be the manatee

it is creeping up until he could lean

over and get a creep up my throat

so

with his legs hanging downwards he was

sitting on that straw hip

something was broken against his skin

so

what it terrify he must be terrified

because he is not able to see what

animal this is

what it is

right so he must have felt extremely

terrified

he thought it was the monitor and

if it is the monitor

i am going to die in an instant

the monitor actually is trying to

jump on me

so that it could have a hole on my

throat and it could press my

squeeze my throat

just when he was getting ready to

press the trigger of the gun

a small animal jumped between his arms

and his chest

and what animal it was it was a cat

it was a kitten small cat a kitten

it was soaking wet it was completely wet

because there was rain and thunder

outside there was rain there was a storm

raising a few minutes ago

so it had become completely wet

and it was looking for some shelter

it was looking for

warmth and protection

so

it was not able to see

the narrator

lying there on that straw hip

so it had come closer

at this time

when

he had got a fright

he was able to hear some sound some

distance away of course from where he

was hiding

the narrator was able to hear a low

growling sound coming from afar

some distance away from

where he was sitting

he heard some sound was noise was coming

from growling from

the tiger

and the lepers growl

so growling noise was coming from

a place some distance away

and this

noise

gradually grew louder and louder

what had happened so he must have

worried there he must have become

worried what was this what is happening

the man eater had returned

to this spot

where he had left the key

so the previous day he had left the kill

this boy's dead body at a place

after the storm was over

after it had stopped raining the manager

came to that place

and it was searching for the dead body

when he was searching for the dead body

he came across another male leopard

who looked upon this particular area as

his haunting ground

dogs you must have seen dogs which live

in your street they don't allow other

dogs to enter your their area

dogs urinate

to mark

their area

and they would not allow any other dog

to enter that area if dogs

enter into

their area they bark loudly at it and in

a group they run after it they give it a

hot size

so similarly the same is the case with

carnivores also

these animals

this these jungle animals especially

those who those who those which haunt

other animals for food

they don't allow animals of other areas

to enter into their area if

other animals by chance enter into their

area there is a

fight

usually a carnivore keeps to its

own area

and when two males meet

the weaker one

gives way to the stronger i mean he

doesn't fight with the stronger he goes

away the weaker one knows no no i can't

uh stand up to his strength so let me go

away

i i am not a match

to him

so let me go away so it runs away but

this time the man eater was big and

powerful no doubt

but it was

a very powerful male in its own area

but here

what was his status

what was his position

he was a trespasser trespasser is one

who enters into

another's area without taking permission

so here

in this case he was a trespa trespasser

and he was a stranger he was he was not

a local

he was not a leopard

acquainted with this area frequently

seen in this area

and the local labor you know he was the

local dada

so he was just like the local radha

so local dada this is my area sorry

sorry chap you can't come here

sorry mate you can't come here

so that was the case

and obviously

the manager had to fight for its life

why heard the now there can be a

question

when the narrator heard the sound noise

of their fight

and their growling noise

he knew now it would not be possible for

him

to kill the tiger

why had this narrator's chance of

killing the tiger thinned or become less

because of two three things one the

suppose the man eater succeeds in the

battle

if he becomes successful mandatory

successful he shows that he has more

power he is able to defeat the local

leopard in the battle

but it must have received injuries

and when it has injured itself in a

fight

it will no more be interested in the

food

or the body which has which it had left

the previous night

so this should prevent him from taking

interest in the kill he would no more be

interested in the killing

or in the kill the

dead body which it had

left and there was another possibility

suppose the two fighters two two lapers

fought with each other

very fiercely seriously

the manitor could be killed in the

process

so if the man eater was killed in the

process

how could the

writer kill it once again

so the fight could end fatally fatally

means bringing

death fatally for the

manager

then the narrator says

from a distance of course he hears the

many rounds of fighting that goes on

between the

man eating leopard

and the local labor manitor leopard

the first round lasted for barely only

for five minutes

and

they were still very fresh lot of energy

was there so the two animals

fought very bravely very strongly very

courageously

they were full of energy

after then there was a you know

period of period of silence

after 10 or 15 minutes the second round

started

this time the sound came

from a place which was some distance

away

from the place where

has been able to

drive away the monitor

some distance away from

its own area

it has driven him i mean he has proved

to be more powerful than the manager

so that is what the writer

notes here he says the local leopard was

able to drive the manager some distance

away from his territory

and now

after some time the third round start

started

and it was a very short round

and by then

their energy had went

wand decreased

they were left with

less energy

so the intensity of the fight

was obviously

less

intensity of the fight during the first

round was more because they were full of

energy then after you have fought for

some time

that energy decreases

so third when the third round started

the energy had decreased then so the

intensity of the fight decreased

when the fourth round resumed

the sound came from the shoulder of the

hill the writer says so far away from

the original place

so the writer comes to the conclusion

that the

leopard has been the main

man heater leopard has been driven away

from that area

because now the sound comes from the

hill distant hill

the

narrator finally says

i lost a chance to kill the labor

one thing

he shortened

that the manager was not killed in the

encounter

there was an encounter

the local labor had fought with it

but it was the manager was not killed in

the encounter because he could hear the

noise

he could hear the roaring sound coming

from a distance

growling sound coming from a distance

from the hills

it's roaring why does he say why why

does he say that the

you know the manatee leopard was not

killed because his snoring could be

heard even after four rounds of fighting

but there was one possibility

the possibility was that

he must have been badly injured

he must have given a fight

he must have fought with the local labor

and in the process he must have received

injuries

the chance of its entering into human

habitation

once again and killing people that must

have ended there

but it was only injured

after a few days

it will recover from the injuries

once it recovers from the injuries it

will once again enter the human

habitation

it will once again start killing people

so the writer says since he was not dead

he was expected to come again

to meet his craving for

human flesh it had a great desire to eat

human get that liking to eat in one

place

therefore it was attacking human beings

and carrying them away

so

after a few days it would certainly come

and kill human beings once again

so my dear friends i hope this helps you

the question would be like this if there

is a long question

it would be like this

describe

the encounter that

the man manitor labored heart with the

local labor

this will be one long question such

questions i have already discussed with

you

thank you very much

have a good day
