Unforgivable
Early on, one of the leopards was tracked down and caught. Some 1700 personnel and several unique tactics were used to track down the other two. The second leopard was finally caught but was severely injured by the tracker dogs used to find it.
The negligence that led to the animals escaping caused enough outrage on its own. When the public learned why it was initially covered up, locals demanded accountability for those involved as their reasons were considered unforgivable.
