Two leopard cats and two black bears were dispatched from Jammu Railway Station on Tuesday in a special parcel van attached to train 16032, railway officials said. The consignment will cover nearly 2,800 km to reach MGR Chennai in Tamil Nadu in about 54 hours, a duration which officials said is shorter and safer compared to road transport.
