While driving his car, a man noticed what he thought to be a huge injured wild cat laying in the middle of the road. Though he was very scared, he stopped and went to investigate.
A 40-year-old guy named Ben Lilly noticed a leopard napping on the road near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. Fearing for his safety, he cautiously parked his car and approached the animal.
But getting closer, he saw it was just a coat that had been left behind, perhaps by some partygoers.
Lilly made a decision to share his story on Facebook although he was embarrassed by the error despite his relief. But he had no clue it would become popular!
“Careful! on the way to Halifax, a leopard body beside the roadside! The father of two children, Ben Lilly, wrote on Facebook, “Oh no, it’s some tart’s coat from last night, can’t believe I turned back for this.”
Later, Lilly observed, “My heart was racing with a kind of excitement.” I observed something off in the distance as I rounded the bend and slowed down to give it room in case it was an injured animal.Since I didn’t want anything to pull anything off my face, I stepped out gently, but as soon as I turned back and saw it from a new angle, I started laughing.
