In the clip, which has now gone viral, Yogi Adityanath is seen holding a bottle of milk as the cub reaches for it.

The leopard cub initially hesitates to drink the milk. The vet then brings it back to Yogi Adityanath, who, wearing protective orange rubber gloves, holds the cub and tries to feed it again. This time, the cub manages to drink from the bottle.

Later, the officials zoo enclosures to the Chief Minister and briefed him about the features of the enclosures and how the animals are managed.

The Shaheed Ashfaq Ullah Khan Zoological Park was inaugurated by Yogi Adityanath in March last year.
