    Leopard on loose at embassy compound

    ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - A leopard is loose in the British Embassy compound in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, the embassy said Tuesday.

    "There have been lots of wildlife in the compound, including mongoose, jackals and civet cats. The leopard which we are talking about has caused no injuries," spokeswoman Holly Tett said.

    "The embassy is looking at different ways on how to deal with the leopard," she said, including trapping it.

    There were no details about how the predator entered the large compound.

    Habitat decline, hunting, road kills and conflict with humans are among the key threats to Africa's carnivores. Animals and humans are increasingly coming into contact as rising populations put pressure on many predator habitats.
