@Pckts, it’s from today and is from Tezpur. Saw it earlier in the day on the news. Most likely from Nameri. The man escaped lightly. After that “tackle”, it just went away. It didn’t kill anyone.

Caption was from the uploader.
But yes, that guy is very lucky although he took quite the fall.
Incredible video though, shows how little of a chance a human has escaping a big cat.

Dang that guy got smacked down.

"We don’t know if the animal had moved out of Kaziranga. Usually, the tigers of Nameri use a patch along Jia Bharali river area for movement." a report in New Indian Express quoted Kaziranga Field Director P Sivakumar as saying.

An Alaskan judge decided to side with Trump, thus allowing the first lease-sale of oil and gas in Arctic Wildlife Refuge, which is home to polar bears and caribou deer, among other species: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2021/01/05/alaska-arctic-national-wildlife-refuge-oil-gas-lease-sales/6558087002/

Mammal species occupy different climates following the expansion of human impacts
Abstract:
Cities and agricultural fields encroach on the most fertile, habitable terrestrial landscapes, fundamentally altering global ecosystems. Today, 75% of terrestrial ecosystems are considerably altered by human activities, and landscape transformation continues to accelerate. Human impacts are one of the major drivers of the current biodiversity crisis, and they have had unprecedented consequences on ecosystem function and rates of species extinctions for thousands of years. Here we use the fossil record to investigate whether changes in geographic range that could result from human impacts have altered the climatic niches of 46 species covering six mammal orders within the contiguous United States. Sixty-seven percent of the studied mammals have significantly different climatic niches today than they did before the onset of the Industrial Revolution. Niches changed the most in the portions of the range that overlap with human-impacted landscapes. Whether by forcible elimination/introduction or more indirect means, large-bodied dietary specialists have been extirpated from climatic envelopes that characterize human-impacted areas, whereas smaller, generalist mammals have been facilitated, colonizing these same areas of the climatic space. Importantly, the climates where we find mammals today do not necessarily represent their past habitats. Without mitigation, as we move further into the Anthropocene, we can anticipate a low standing biodiversity dominated by small, generalist mammals.
The last line describes what we see in large parts of europe today. It's why the rewilding movement in europe is so important.

It'd seem this sub-adult's a mother that has sheltered it too much...
Nonetheless overall good attitude by both people & animal. Today At Tirthan Valley, Himachal Pradesh.

@Rishi This is like the Tiger roaming close to Thimpu’s outskirts not caring about humans. It was later found to have CDV (Canine Distemper Virus). Maybe this leopard has it as well.

2 years old subadult leopard interacting with people in Kullu, India
Seems pretty friendly and chill, in another video he actually pulled a man down while playing, no one was hurt

Another gold!.. Umared-Karhandla I think from the tigers looks.

Case 2 – Jaguar
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/334202232_Defense_injuries_in_attacks_on_humans_by_domestic_dog_Canis_lupus_familiaris_and_jaguar_Panthera_onca
A 46-year-old male attended Cáceres Regional Hospital (Mato Grosso State, Brazil). Cáceres is a municipality located in the Pantanal region, a lowland flooded area featuring intense wildlife activity. The victim reported that he was attacked by a jaguar (Panthera onca), when he was in a pasture with other workers looking for a missing horse. He felt a strong smell and imagined that it could be of the dead horse and found an alligator (caiman) carcass. The jaguar that was devouring the carcass appeared and attacked the patient, who tried to defend himself by raising his arm in front of his face and was bitten. The attack caused lacerated skin, muscle lesions and open fractures of the bones of the left forearm (Figure 2). The dogs who accompanied the patient attacked the jaguar, causing it to deflect the attack and leave the victim. When dogs reacted, the animal climbed on a tree and soon after, tried to attack the victim again, but it was driven away by the fellows who arrived on the scene.
The patient was referred to the Cáceres Regional Hospital and taken into the emergency room. The exam showed extensive lacerations on his left forearm, with open fractures next to the wrist. Simple radiological examinations revealed radius and ulna fractures, with axis deviation and presence of fragments in the area. The injuries were washed thoroughly with saline solution and antisepsis was performed with povidone. The devitalized tissues were extracted and after orthopedic surgery, the fractured bones were aligned and fixed with rods.
The treatment also utilized Penrose drains, sutures by planes with mononylon 4-0 and compressive dressings. Prevention of infection was performed with Cephalothin 1.0 g IV 6/6 hours and gentamicin 60 mg IV 8/8 hours. The SAT (anti-tetanus serum) was applied at a dose of 5000 U IM. He was vaccinated against rabies (05 doses intramuscularly), received rabies immunoglobulin (20 IU/kg) and daily dressings. The patient progressed satisfactorily and was discharged after six months of follow-up.
