This leopard is feeling a bit sheepish. He's supposed to be a big, intimidating cat and yet ... here he is, with his head stuck in a pot.

The North Indian leopard had apparently been attempting to drink water from a local village pot when his head became entrapped in the container. After tranquilizing the animal, officials required more than 6 hours to free the leopard from his potted prison.
