There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Also you do realize that the asiatic cheetahs in iran were the same ones that used to live in india.
I Know all these... but you are defining, naming and border-lining species based on geography. Hence, I thought, why you are not thinking the same between countries, if you dig deeper, then microscopic variations between Iranian Cheetah and Indian Cheetah are also present, as they are separate populations. If you go even deeper, then genetic makeup between Individual cheetahs will be different. This concept is wrong and Acionyx jubatus is a species.
Can you show the difference in between India's arid savanna and Africa's Grasslands and also Climate and Temperature.
Species itself lives in similar biomes with required adaptations and "not based on human conceptions" like lining continents, countries, islands etc.., We are not even talking about separate species. Don't know Why this debate and negotiation arising.
Though it's not about those, as their survival depends more upon open landscaped vegetation irrespective of the grass species type and Prey availability.
Can you be more specific on which aspect, African Cheetah won't survive in India on which all expert bodies and organizations are agreeing and "Recommending"?
