Last week, a babysitter at the Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda didn't notice 3-year-old Elisha Nabugyere step out of the doorway of the staff quarters. “The leopard grabbed and ran with him,” the boy's father, Francis Manana Nabugyere, told the Kampala Post. Bashir Hangi, a spokesman for the Uganda Wildlife Authority, told the Telegraph that the nanny tried to rescue the child. His parents told reporters that they hope the Uganda Wildlife Authority will do more to protect staff and children. Park rangers are on the hunt for the leopard and plan to remove it from the wild if captured.
