One More Cheetah Dies in Kuno National Park, tally Rises to Nine
On Wednesday morning, August 2 a female cheetah named "Dhatri" was discovered dead in the Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh. A post-mortem is being performed by officials to determine the cause of death. At the Kuno National Park, where 20 cheetahs were brought in from South Africa and Namibia as part of the large-scale Project Cheetah project, this is the ninth death since March in the National Park. The project's goal is to bring these magnificent cats back to India, where they were declared extinct over 70 years ago.
