Dayton is about 125 miles west of Zanesville where the suicide/mass exotic animal tragedy took place, and this leopard was sighted in Dayton for the first time months ago.

Now there is a new story about black leopard sightings in Clark County in the southwestern portion of the state. (Note: The video at the link below is edited in a way that I thought was a bit confusing, but the man interviewed in the videos is NOT the man who shot at the leopard. He is hoping the cat will captured and taken to a zoo. )

It is a real shame that so many exotic animals are ending up like this in Ohio.
