A three-month-old leopard cub was brought to the zoo on Wednesday from Khenda Farm area. The cub was rescued by Badwani Forest Department.
Zoo incharge Yadav said the cub got separated from its mother while roaming in the area.
The cub was hurt in the hind legs. Dr Yadav said the injury may have slowed down the cub and hence it got distanced from its mother and hence it may have sought shelter in the farm area.
Forest Department official, Rajkumar, said they were informed about the cub by the farmers.
The forest department team reached the spot and rescued the cub and sent it to Indore Zoo.
Dr Yadav said the cub seemed dehydrated. It has been kept under observation.
