Detail The mystery of Cheetah Uday’s death has deepened on Sunday in Madhya Pradesh’s Kuno National Park. The initial postmortem report lists cardiopulmonary failure as the cause of Uday’s death. Even after this, the forensic and necropsy reports are still awaited. Experts say that Uday died within hours of the onset of symptoms. From snake bite to other reasons are being sought. After getting the reports, it will be confirmed that why suddenly Uday had cardiopulmonary failure?

Meanwhile, a big meeting of the Forest Department was called in Gwalior. It is said that Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (Wildlife) JS Chauhan has written a letter to the Central Government regarding the shifting of some cheetahs. Chouhan had said on Monday that there can only be – leopards at one place. For this reason, the cheetahs should be shifted to the places seen as an alternative. In this background a meeting of senior forest officials was called in Gwalior. In this, it has also been asked to maintain confidentiality in the incidents related to Project Cheetah so that there is no misunderstanding or miss reporting regarding the project. This can harm the project. However, international experts say that the death of cheetahs is not unusual. Deaths happen whenever an animal is resettled to a new place. Even after this, it is necessary to see whether adequate arrangements were made to save those who can be saved. Along with this, it is necessary to make effective arrangements so that this does not happen in future.

Uday, a cheetah caught near the Matlabas River in South Africa, was six years old. 12 came to India on February 25 was one of the cheetahs. A month before this, female cheetah Sasha from Namibia had died due to kidney disease. Laurie Marker, executive director of Namibia’s Cheetah Conservation Fund, said that as scientists, we are waiting for the necropsy report. Only after that we will be able to reach any conclusion. Uday was given immediate medical help as soon as the symptoms appeared. Such projects are of long term. The good news is that the cheetahs from Namibia have adapted to their new environment. Children have also taken birth. This makes the project viable.

Rajasthan’s Mukundara or Gandisagar can be the habitat of cheetahs New House
In view of the increasing number of cheetahs in Kuno National Park, they can be shifted to new places. Among these, the possibility of being sent to Mukundara in Rajasthan or Gandisagar Sanctuary in Madhya Pradesh is high. The decision has to be taken by the central government. The biggest problem is that some cheetahs from Namibia are still locked in enclosures in Kuno National Park. South African cheetahs have also been released there. Because of this their number is more. It is currently difficult to leave everyone in the open forest in Kuno National Park. Take the leopard Pawan (Oban) who came from Namibia, he has gone out of the park four times in a month. He has been repeatedly tranquilized and brought to the park area. In such a situation, discussion has started on shifting some other cheetahs including Pawan to new places. Fencing has already been done in Mukundara. Whereas, fencing is being done in Gandisagar. It will not be easy for the cheetahs to cross them. ,
