A panther that had entered a house on the sly looking for a drink got its head stuck in the water pot.
A video, which shows the young panther stumbling across the Sadulkheda village in Rajasthan carrying the pot in its head, is buzzing around.
The villagers of Sadulkheda in Rajsamand district live barely 20 km away from a local sanctuary and are used to wild animals straying in.
But the sight of a leopard desperately trying to get rid of the water pot was a novelty but they still did not dare to approach the animal.
They called the forest department officials, who tranquilised the animal, and rescued it.
