Asiatic Lion Reintroduction Project

would be an absolute one of the best reserve in terms of tourism potential, but i see one prime concern and that is the area of this reserve which i feel would be small for both cats to thrive together in the long run. Another is the terrain. i dnt know how diverse is the Kuno's terrain but there should be ample forest and grassland patches preferably hilly terrain for seclusion, privacy etc. such that what will be a prime area for one species of cat would be a fringe area for the other, minimizing prolonged contact and stress between the two cats. Not that fight won't happen but that will be less devastating and more like a skirmish where a looser still can run away, rest and hunt in another area an sustain itself. The last one i feel will be the same prey species that will be targeted by both these cats and lack of any wild bovines-a really large prey choice that would have been perfect here, this will result in direct competition and a severe conflict. But the main hurdle i see is the small area of the reserve itself. Reply
