Seven persons have been arrested after the recovery of a leopard skin and nails in Gujarat’s Valsad district, a forest department official said on Sunday.
They allegedly removed the skin and nails of a dead leopard and two of the accused were caught on Friday while trying to sell them to a team of the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau (WCCB) and local forest department who posed as dummy customers, Kaprada range forest officer Ankit Patel said.
