There is a possibility that they may launch the Cheetah Project at Kuno Palpur Park in Madhya Pradesh. For this, the Madhya Pradesh government has also made full preparations.
These cheetahs have also been kept separate in Namibia and they are fully prepared to come to India. Although it was expected that these cheetahs would be brought to India only last month, but it could not happen. These cheetahs will be released in a special enclosure of the Prime Minister’s Park. For this, five helipads are being prepared in the park and four in Karahal.
the cheetah would have arrived two years ago
Prior to the Corona period, the Government of India had decided to bring a cheetah in 2020 following the directions of the Supreme Court, but due to unfavorable weather that year in some parts of Madhya Pradesh, a fencing could not be prepared for the cheetah in the Kuno Palpur National Park. After this, new cases of corona started coming in Africa, due to which the trip of Indian officials related to the plan to Africa was canceled and work had to be stopped.
Cheetah numbers expected to reach 50 in next five years
India was once considered the home of Asiatic cheetahs. There was such a large number of them that hunting them became the hobby of the royals. Due to this hobby, cheetahs became extinct. The last cheetah in the country was killed in present-day Chhattisgarh due to this hobby of the kings. It was then declared extinct in 1952. Under the Cheetah Project, there is a plan to increase the number of cheetahs to 50 in the next 5 years.
Kuno Palpur Park Suitable area for cheetahs: Officials
According to news agency PTI, officials told that the Cheetah project was conceived in 2009. Last year, due to Kovid, the plan to bring cheetahs to Kuno Palpur Park suffered a setback. Officials said that Kuno Palpur Park is a suitable area for cheetahs as they can get good prey here. Experts from the Wildlife Institute of India have also monitored the area. According to officials, Madhya Pradesh has a good record of conservation of the fauna as tigers were successfully reared in Panna in 2009.
