[Ovie11]

The family of cheetal is increasing to settle African cheetahs

Mandsaur (Rep. of New Zealand). However, in the first phase, African cheetahs are not being brought to the Gandhisagar Sanctuary, spread over the border of Mandsaur district and Rajasthan, which is about 323 sq.km. But work is going on to create a conducive environment for cheetahs. A target has been set to leave 500 cheetals here for the food of the cheetahs. Out of this, 244 cheetals have been brought so far. In the intervening night of Thursday-Friday, 48 cheetals were also released. Cheetals are being caught and brought from Narsinghgarh sanctuary of Rajgarh district by Boma method. The previously released cheetals have also become used to the environment here. Later, the roar of the tiger can also resonate with the cheetahs here.

Gandhisagar Sanctuary is spread over a total area of 368.62 sq km including 181 sq km in Mandsaur district and 187 sq km in Neemuch district. The second highest number of vultures have been found here in the state. There are more than 226 species of birds. However, in the race to settle African cheetahs in India, Gandhisagar Sanctuary has lagged behind Noradehi Sanctuary of Sheopur. However, still the forest department has not given up hope and chitals are being brought here and released. The grasslands are in a good condition for cheetahs to settle here like in Africa. The government has set a target of releasing 500 cheetals in Gandhisagar and till Saturday 244 cheetals have been released.
