Gandhi Sagar Sanctuary to Receive New Cheetahs
India is expanding its cheetah program by adding Gandhi Sagar Wildlife Sanctuary as a new home for cheetahs.
They are planning to bring in more cheetahs from Africa by the end of 2025.
They have already moved some cheetahs from Kuno National Park to Gandhi Sagar, who seem to be adjusting well.
This is part of a project to reintroduce cheetahs to India, with the goal of having a healthy cheetah population.
They also have quarantine and release areas ready for the new cheetahs.
Gandhi Sagar Wildlife Sanctuary is preparing to receive more cheetahs.
A fresh batch of 8-10 cheetahs expected by end of 2025.
Three cheetahs moved to Gandhi Sagar in recent months.
Discussions are ongoing with African nations.
Kuno National Park has 25 cheetahs and Gandhi Sagar has 3.
