Nationalism divides even Cheetahs: South African, Namibian big cats clash at Kuno National Park, one injured

Firstpost  

An African cheetah that was relocated to Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh’s Sheopur district has suffered injuries following a confrontation with other cheetahs. The incident took place at around 6 PM on Monday in the free range area of KNP when Gaurav and Shaurya, two cheetahs translocated from Namibia, got into a fight with Agni and Vayu, who were brought from South Africa. In an attempt to intervene, park officials activated sirens and used firecrackers to disperse the battling cheetahs, according to PK Verma, the divisional forest official. Five female and three male cheetahs brought from Namibia were released into enclosures at the KNP at an event attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 17 September, 2022, as part of an effort to revive the extinct cheetah population in the wild in India.
