Former England captain Kevin Pietersen landed in India yesterday to check on the orphaned baby leopard he had adopted in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, last week. He uploaded a video of him feeding the cub from a bottle on Instagram and captioned it, "HAPPINESS IN THIS! How beautiful is this baby Leopard????"


Last week, he announced the adopting of the leopard and wrote, "I've adopted this little orphaned Leopard in Raipur, India. The opportunity came up a couple weeks ago & when I saw 40 leopards were killed in Jan in India & 1/3 by poachers, I decided to try and help. I'm visiting India next week to meet him! Guess what I've called him?" We are waiting, KP!
