The man who had been captured in the paws of the leopard.
|
Several men try to pry the leopard's paws off of a man who suffered injuries during the hours long attack.
|
The leopard cowered under a bed as villagers surrounded it in concrete home before its death At one point during the rampage, it appeared as though villagers tried to capture the leopard under a net But the leopard escaped the net, which is believed to have happened after it emerged from underneath the bed.

A wild leopard was clubbed to death in India after it mauled nine people as it prowled through homes in the area. Shocking photos show the moment the leopard was killed in Gurgaon, India after it wanted into the town from a nearby forest. Villagers chased the two-and-a-half-year-old leopard into a concrete house where it cowered under a bed as a growing mob surrounded it. The big cat was spotted prowling round homes in Gurgaon, India, after wandering away from nearby forests. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4599154/Photos-moment-leopard-killed-angry-mob.html

The surgeons at Tenth People's Hospital of Shanghai in China removed the 30 inches of the affected part of his colon (pictured). The medical experts believe he had been constipated for years and looked 'like he was about to explode. 'The patient said he had always suffered from constipation and used laxatives, but those only offered a brief relief. He finally went to the hospital so doctors could relieve him of his symptoms. Tests conducted determined the man had years worth of feces inside a portion of his colon, causing the immense swelling of his abdomen. Dr Yin Lu said the procedure lasted three hours and removed the enlarged body part. After removing his gut, surgeons stitched it up at both ends to stop feces from falling out. Hirschsprung's disease affects one in every 5,000 babies. The disease is uncommonly diagnosed in adults. It also is more common for males to be affected by the condition.

Doctors removed 28 pounds of feces from the bowels of a man who was reportedly constipated since birth. The unnamed 22-year-old had 30 inches of his grossly enlarged bowel removed by surgeons at Tenth People's Hospital of Shanghai in China. It is believed the young man had Hirschsprung's disease, which causes the bowels to swell because the nerves that are supposed to control the gut are missing. Doctors said the man looked like he was nine months pregnant because of the painful enlargement and feces backup. HIRSCHSPRUNG'S DISEASE Hirschsprung's disease is a rare condition that causes poo to become stuck in the bowels. It mainly affects babies and young children. It means the nerves that control the movement of feces are missing from a section at the end of the bowel, which means poo can build-up and form a blockage. This can cause severe constipation, and occasionally lead to a serious bowel infection called enterocolitis if it's not identified and treated early on. Symptoms of Hirschsprung's disease are usually noticeable from soon after a baby is born, although occasionally they're not obvious until a child is a year or two old. All children with Hirschsprung's disease will need surgery. https://www.inverse.com/article/32839-constipated-man-china-feces-poop-hirschsprung-disease?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C8095387778 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-4597924/Doctors-remove-28-pounds-feces-constipated-man.html

With over millions views on various social media platforms, many people have blamed the bride for being greedy. The chauffeur of the wedding car also stopped the car a few times on a 10-minute journey and asked for red packets,' Mr Li said. Red packets are monetary gifts used in important events, such as Lunar New Year and weddings, as a symbol of blessing. Li added that the driver stretched the 10-minute journey to nearly two hours. 'Every time the car stopped, we were surrounded by guests who also wanted moneyand we had given away all the red packets.'
|
The reports initially claimed that the groom kicked the bride and demanded her to return the wedding money he had given to, which was over 300,000 yuan (£35,000). Reports also said the woman had asked to be given 8,800 yuan (£1,017) before agreeing to get off the car and meet the wedding guests. Other reports gave different explanations on why the man had become furious. Some claimed that the groom found out his fiancée had slept with her ex-boyfriend the night before their wedding. Others suggested that the bride shocked the groom by bringing her childrento the wedding, whose existence the groom had not known.

A video showing a groom forcefully dragging his bride out of a car during their wedding has sparked discussion in China. Initial reports suggested that the groom was enraged after his fiancée had demanded a large amount of money to be paid before she would agree to step out of the wedding car. However, the groom claimed that he got angry because the driver of the wedding car had kept demanding gift money from them, according to an updated report.

The Island Archipelago of Tristan da Cunha. It is the most remote inhabited archipelago in the world, lying 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) from the nearest inhabited land, Saint Helena, and 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) from the nearest continental land, South Africa. It is 3,360 kilometres (2,090 mi) from South America. The territory consists of the main island, named Tristan da Cunha, which has a north south length of 11.27 kilometres (7.00 mi) and an area of 98 square kilometres (38 sq mi), along with the smaller, uninhabited Nightingale Islands and the wildlife reserves of inaccessible and Gough islands. As of January 2017, the main island has 262 permanent inhabitants. The other islands are uninhabited, except for the personnel of a weather station on Gough Island. The island is part of a few other similar pieces of land, which were once named the Inaccessible Islands. True to their names, the islands hold many shipwrecks off their shores.

Papua New Guinea And Congo Rainforest. Like the Great Barrier Reef, Papua New Guinea is ripe for scientific exploration. The entire country is largely unexplored in the Western sense, although it is home to several indigenous tribes. Because Papua New Guinea is covered by dense vegetation, exploration is difficult but rewarding. A lack of paved roads and limited infrastructure mean that tourism is scarce and hasn’t damaged this thriving and unique ecosystem. Roughly 2/3 of the life on Papua New Guinea is endemic, which is sure to lure in the scientifically minded. Congo Rainforest The Amazon might be bigger, but the Congo forest is less explored. The Congo Basin, which covers an enormous 15% of Africa, has long been a fascinating subject for both locals and foreigners alike. Native pygmy tribes tell tall tales about dinosaur-like creatures that stalk through the Congo forest, while foreigners like to debate the possibility of pygmy tribes. The Congo is largely populated by Bantu people and was first explored by Henry Morton Stanley, in 1876. Although Stanley traveled 7,000 miles through Africa in 3years, but the Congo forest remains a mystery and unexplored. http://www.therichest.com/rich-list/12-of-the-least-explored-frontiers-on-earth/

Northeast and Northwest, of Kamchatka Peninsula, Siberia, Russia. Responsible for over 77% of the land space of Russia and holding a mere 27% of the country’s population. Located in the north of Russia, is infamously cold and inhospitable. While much of Siberia remains unexplored, the Kamchatka Peninsula, located in Northeast Siberia, is possibly the least explored region. Approximately 300,000 live on the Kamchatka Peninsula, but the majority is uninhabited. The Peninsula is rife with geological wonders, including volcanoes, geysers and bays, and remains largely unexplored thanks to its remote location and stormy winters.

Antarctica. At 14,000,000 square kilometres (5,400,000 square miles), it is the fifth-largest continent. Antarctica is the coldest place on the Earth surface. It is also the driest, coldest, and windiest continent on Earth. The climate in this continent drastically changes between -10 degree Celsius to -30 degree Celsius under normal condition. The lowest recorded temperature in Antarctica is -89 degree Celsius. This harsh climate itself make Antarctica to a least explored place on Earth. The fastest wind speed recorded in Antarctica is 200 miles per hour in 1972. The ice sheets in Antarctica have a thickness of 2 miles. It reflect the unbearable climate condition in the continent. Heavy snow falls, glaciers, crevasses are the other potential hazards in Antarctica.

Amazon rainforest, South America. Covering a total area of 2.5 million sq. mi, Amazon holds half of the earth's rain forests. The rich biodiversity and presence of many rare species make Amazon rainforest to a focal area for scientific expeditions. But Amazon’s mysterious habitat makes it still an least explored place on Earth. There is no dry season in Amazon rainforest, get rain all the year. The heavy rain in Amazon rain forest comes in February. It causes drastic rise of water level in Amazon river. It also leads to heavy flooding in the Amazon. In such a condition, the transportation through Amazon river also become too dangerous due to extreme river currents. There are also deadly animals in the Amazon like Anacondas, Pythons, jaguars, rattlesnakes, Brazilian wandering spiders, mosquitoes, poison dart frogs, piranhas, black caiman that could harm humans. In addition, the lack of access to healthy food and clean water makes expedition in Amazon rainforest too dangerous.

Son Doong Cave, Vietnam. The world’s largest cave, having its own river, waterfall, mountains, climate and a jungle. At more than 5.5 miles long, it’s cavernous enough to house a skyscraper. The first expedition set off to explore this underground world in 2009 before being stymied by a 200-foot-tall wall of calcite inside. Much of the surrounding network of over 150 caves near the Laos border remains unsurveyed.

Deep caves. There are large number of caves located across the world. It is too difficult to explore many caves due to unbearable weather conditions, sharp rocks, scalding water, and slipping conditions in the caves. Some of the underwater caves in the world are even uninhabited by marine life because of deadliest conditions. The flooded, Yucatan Cenotes cave network in Mexico is the best example for it. The crystal caves and snow caves also become too dangerous for expedition due to unprecedented changes.
|
The Deserts. It is a known fact that deserts are least explored because of uninhabitable weather conditions. Sahara is the largest desert in the world, depending on unsuitable conditions for growing plants. Covering over 200 million square miles, Sahara desert located in Africa, is the the largest and hottest desert in the world. Deserts only get very little rainfall in a year. Extreme temperature fluctuations are very common in deserts. The days can be extreme hot, but nights are very cold. It makes very harsh environments for animals, plants and humans. Even though, a few animal and plant life can be found on deserts. Such animals possess high adaptability to live in harsh, desert environment.

Gangkhar Puensum, Bhutan. Gangkhar Puensum is the highest, unclimbed mountain in the world. It is located in Bhutan. This mountain has a height of 7570 meters and it is the 40th highest mountain in the world. As you know, even the highest peak, Mount Everest already been successfully climbed by many people. But Gangkhar Puensum still remain unclimbed. There are only four reported expeditions took place in Gangkhar Puensum. In 1983, 1985, 1986 and 1994 respectively. But, all of those expeditions became unsuccessful due to heavy snowfall and unsustainable conditions. In 2004, Bhutan government restricted mountaineering in Gangkhar Puensum because of spiritual beliefs. So, Gangkhar Puensum mountain became unclimbed and unexplored.

Mariana trench, Western Pacific ocean (11,000m deep from the bottom of the ocean) Located in Western Pacific ocean, Mariana trench is the deepest part of the Earth. This deep, crescent shaped trench was formed by ocean to ocean subduction about millions of years ago. The deepest point in Mariana trench isknown as ‘challenger deep’. The depth of this point is estimated to be 10,994 meters. Considering the depth and high pressure in Mariana trench, it’s a dangerous place to explore. Until now, Two successful manned descent to challenger deep has been recorded. The first manned-descent to challenger deep was done by Swiss Oceanographer Jacques Piccard and USN Lieutenant Don Walsh in 1960. The second mission was done by famous Hollywood film director James Cameroon on 26th March 2012. It was a solo mission. Mariana trench is home for many rare minerals and deep ocean creatures. The floor of Mariana trench contains fossils that age missions of years. Detailed exploration on challenger deep could reveal many secrets of Earth. But the unsustainable conditions of Mariana trench make it so difficult.

Greenland icecaps. Greenland is the largest island on earth. It is also the Northern most country in the world. The Kaffeklunnen Island of Greenland is just 442 miles from the North Pole. Interestingly, Greenland is spread across a vast area of 8,36,300 square miles and 80% of it is covered by ice. It is the exact reason why Greenland remain least explored and underpopulated. By 2017, only 56,239 people live in this large island. Some ice sheets of this island have a thickness of 3200 meters. It is also estimated that Greenland ice sheets are aged between 400,000 and 800,00 years. Greenland is also home to glaciers, ice flowing rivers, midnight Sun, hotsprings and Northern lights. In case of trasnportation, there are no major roads or rail networks in Greenland. To get around, you can choose snowmobile, boat, plane or helicopter.

With exceptional brain power, human have discovered many secrets on Earth. We have already reached the Moon surface and have explored other planets (not manned-missions). Interestingly, there are still a number places on Earth that are yet to be explored. Inhospitable, harsh environments and devastating natural forces make some places least explored on earth. On the other hand, it’s a blessing. Because, it help to keep even a few places in its original form. https://themysteriousworld.com/unexplored-places-on-earth/?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C6074629641 Lalasticlala, Mynd44
