most difficult thing in lion reintroduction to kunno is the difference between maldari people of gujrat and natives of madhya pardesh.
1. maldaries have sticks to defend them from lions whereas kunno people have firearms (decoit region) to defend against tiger.
2. lions have a nature of coming close to maldaries coz they know these people won't harm them and visa-versa(see documentary: wandering lions of india) whereas people of kunno have rarely see a tiger so both people and tiger fear each other and avoid each other from a long distance.
so what happens when lions are realesed in kunno ..
they will not fear of people and wander like they do in gir. and people will either poison them for cattle lifting aur lions will be provoked by people due to their
fear and will result in conflict(killing of lions).
keeping last lions of asia with minimum genetic variations in a single forest would definatly result in sudden extinction of lions by some disease.
so only solution is educating every single kunno person about
lion behaviour and how different they are from tigers and showing them how people intrect with lions in gir.
