The document summarizes plans to reintroduce cheetahs back into India. It provides background that cheetahs went extinct in India but used to have a wide distribution across the country. The reintroduction is a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Environment and Forests and state forest departments. The goals are to help restore balance to ecosystems by returning an apex predator, bring back a species that is extinct in India, and improve wildlife habitats.
Cheetahs historically ranged throughout most of Africa and parts of the Middle East and India, but are now found primarily in small populations in central Iran and parts of Africa. Cheetahs are the fastest land animal and can reach speeds of 113 km/hour. While historically found across much of India, they are now extinct there. Efforts are underway by the Indian government to reintroduce cheetahs to appropriate habitat in India to help restore ecosystems impacted by the loss of this keystone predator.
Cheetahs are mammals that live in deserts and grasslands in Africa and Asia. They are carnivores that primarily eat gazelles and other fast prey. Cheetahs have camouflage fur and can run up to 70 miles per hour, but they are endangered due to loss of habitat from human encroachment. Conservation efforts aim to protect cheetah habitat and provide food and medical care to help cheetah populations.
Cheetahs are the fastest land animal but their population has declined drastically. There are now only about 12,400 cheetahs left in the world due to loss of habitat, conflict with farmers, and poaching. Conservation efforts include breeding programs, wildlife reserves, educating farmers, and anti-poaching laws. Individuals can help by donating, volunteering, raising awareness through school projects, and supporting charities and zoos involved in cheetah conservation.
The document discusses the plight of tigers in India and efforts to save them. It notes that according to a recent census, only 1411 tigers remain in India, far below previous estimates. The main threats tigers face are poaching, habitat loss due to deforestation and human expansion. Conservation efforts like Project Tiger were launched in the 1970s to protect tigers, but more work is still needed to save the species from extinction. The document emphasizes the urgent need for strong enforcement of anti-poaching laws, focusing conservation in key habitats, and gaining national commitment to prevent further shrinkage of tiger territories.

The major wild animals of India are elephant, tiger, lion, deer, bear etc. Wild animals are very important in balancing the environment. They provide stability to different natural processes of nature. It can be found in all ecosystems, desert, rain forests, plains and other areas.
Cheetahs are the fastest land animal, capable of running up to 70 mph. They typically weigh 110-140 pounds and have a lifespan of 10-12 years. Cheetahs are now only found parts of Africa and a small portion of Iran, inhabiting open savannah lands. Their diet consists mainly of gazelles, wildebeest calves, and other smaller hoofed animals. Cheetahs are classified as vulnerable due to hunting and loss of habitat.
The document discusses Project Tiger, which was launched in India in 1972 to conserve the declining tiger population. It provides background on the objectives of Project Tiger, which are to ensure a viable wild tiger population and preserve biologically important habitats. It describes the habitats and diets of tigers, and notes the various tiger reserves established in India. It also summarizes the status of different tiger subspecies worldwide and threats they face from poaching and habitat loss, but expresses hope they can be saved through strong anti-poaching efforts and habitat protection.
Cheetahs live on the grasslands of Africa and used to live in areas stretching from North Africa to India. They have yellow or tan fur covered in black spots and can grow up to 7 feet long. Cheetahs hunt small animals like gazelles during the day using their exceptional eyesight to spot prey from over 3 miles away. Their predators include lions, hyenas, and leopards. Female cheetahs give birth to litters of 3 to 5 cubs and can live 10-12 years in the wild.
Tigers are the largest wild cats in the world, but their numbers have declined drastically from about 100,000 a century ago to less than 5000 today globally and less than 1200 in India. This is due to loss of habitat, conflicts with humans, and poaching. In 1972, the Indian government established Project Tiger to protect tigers and their habitats by creating tiger reserves. Currently there are 50 tiger reserves across 18 states in India focused on maintaining viable tiger populations and preserving critical habitats. While government initiatives have helped tiger numbers rebound in some areas, continued conservation efforts are needed to further protect tigers and their forest homes.
The document discusses tigers, including their habitat, importance, decline, and conservation efforts. It provides background on tigers, noting that three subspecies are now extinct. It describes tigers' habitat in jungles, hills, and forests. The document outlines the importance of tigers for livelihoods, genetic diversity, and as a national symbol. It discusses the decline in tiger populations due to poaching and habitat destruction. Conservation efforts mentioned include Project Tiger, which aims to increase tiger populations in reserves, and associations like WWF that work to protect tigers and prevent deforestation.
The document discusses elephant reserves in India. It notes that elephants require large areas and optimal forest conditions to survive. It outlines the goals of Project Elephant, launched in 1992, which are to protect elephants, their habitats, and corridors. Project Elephant aims to ensure the long-term survival of wild elephant populations through various conservation activities like habitat restoration, addressing human-elephant conflict, research, and awareness programs. It also lists the 28 elephant reserves across India where Project Elephant is being implemented.
Tigers are the largest of the big cat species, found in parts of Asia. They can grow up to 3 meters long and weigh up to 300 kg. Tigers have unique vertical stripes and are strong swimmers. There are several subspecies of tigers found in different regions of Asia. Tigers are apex predators that primarily hunt herbivores like deer and buffalo, but will also eat smaller prey. However, tigers are also poached for their fur and body parts, threatening their populations. In 1973, Project Tiger was launched in India to conserve tigers by maintaining viable wild populations in natural habitats. The government has since increased funding for Project Tiger and established new tiger reserves to better protect these animals.
This document discusses tigers, including their physical characteristics, habitats, behaviors, and populations. It provides information on the five tiger subspecies, noting characteristics like coat color and patterns. It also summarizes tiger population statistics in India, explaining they are declining and extinct in over 50% of habitat in some states. Conserving tigers protects the forest ecosystem and many other species.
The Asiatic Lion Reintroduction Project aims to establish a second population of Asiatic lions in Kuno Wildlife Sanctuary, India to safeguard the species from threats faced by the single existing population in Gir Forest, Gujarat. However, the state of Madhya Pradesh has contested the proposed translocation. Studies show lions require large territories but space is limited in Gir, forcing lions to disperse outside the protected area and come into conflict with humans. Conservation efforts have impacted the livelihoods of the Maldhari people who traditionally lived in and around Gir forest.
Older than the Himalaya mountains, the mountain chain of the Western Ghats represents geomorphic features of immense importance with unique biophysical and ecological processes. The site’s high montane forest ecosystems influence the Indian monsoon weather pattern. Moderating the tropical climate of the region, the site presents one of the best examples of the monsoon system on the planet. It also has an exceptionally high level of biological diversity and endemism and is recognized as one of the world’s eight ‘hottest hotspots’ of biological diversity. The forests of the site include some of the best representatives of non-equatorial tropical evergreen forests anywhere and are home to at least 325 globally threatened flora, fauna, bird, amphibian, reptile and fish species.
The document discusses tigers and their importance to ecosystems. Tigers occupy the top of the food chain and regulate herbivore populations, maintaining balance. Their habitats are being lost to farming, logging, and overhunting, and tigers may be extinct in the wild by 2015. Tigers play a vital role and their disappearance would have negative consequences for many other species and ecological processes. Immediate action is needed to preserve tigers and their habitats.
Mousedeer are the smallest ruminants found in Southeast Asia. They exist in Singapore in small populations within nature reserves like the Central Catchment Area. Mousedeer are solitary and nocturnal animals that feed on fruits, shoots, leaves, and fungi. They have a gestation period of 120 days and give birth to one or two young. Mousedeer are considered endangered due to hunting and habitat loss. Their protection is important for maintaining biodiversity in Singapore's forests.

6. Historically ranging throughout most of Sub-Saharan Africa and extending eastward into the Middle East and to central
India, the cheetah is now distributed mainly in small, fragmented populations in central Iran and southern, eastern and
northwestern Africa.
Distribution

7. Basic facts
• The word Cheetah is derived from the Sanskrit: चित्रय (Chitra-ya)
meaning 'variegated', 'adorned' or 'painted.
• Cheetahs are the fastest land animal on earth with top speed 113
km/hour
• While running they use their tail to help steer
• Weight :50-64 kg
• Life span 12-13 years
• They are diurnal, hunting in the late morning and early evening.
• Cheetahs can not roar, instead they purr and growl.

9. Prey Species
Cheetahs mainly eats Gazelles, Wildbeast, Impalas, Wildboar, Chinkara, Blackbuck, Sambar deer and other smaller herbivores.

10. • Historically, Asiatic cheetahs had a very wide
distribution in India.
• There are authentic reports of their occurrence from
as far north as Punjab to Tirunelveli district in
southern Tamil Nadu, from Gujarat and Rajasthan in
the west to Bengal in the east.
• Most of the records are from a belt extending from
Gujarat passing through Maharashtra, Madhya
Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and
Odisha.
• There is also a cluster of reports from southern
Maharashtra extending to parts of Karnataka,
Telangana, Kerala and Tamil Nadu.

The Reintroduction of Cheetah in
India is a combined efforts of the
Ministry of Environment, Forest &

12. Why Cheetah Reintroduction in India ?
• Large carnivores are keystone species in the ecosystems where they inhabit. Their loss
may provoke an imbalance at several levels of the ecosystem.
• The Cheetah is only species extinct from the historical times.
• Bring back cheetahs will provide better management and restoration of wildlife habitats
(Grasslands. Scrublands and open forest ecosystem).
• The cheetah has been the evolutionary natural section force that shaped adaption of high
speed prey species such as antelopes and gazelles.
• The animal charismatic in its own right, therefore, it has special significance for the
National conservation ethics and ethos.
Editor's Notes
Slender long legged body built for speed
Tan in color with block spots all over the body
They can also be distinguished by their smaller size and small head and ears and also distinguished tear stripes from the corner of the eye to side of the nose.
The stripes or "tear lines" going from their eyes to their mouths are used the to keep the glare from sunlight out of their eyes for better vision. This is similar to athletes using eye black.
An ideal habitat is 10 000 sq with strong prey baase.
Most of the Cheetah's prey are bigger than the cheetah itself.They can go a few days without eating, but most go for one meal a day.After a Cheetah catches a prey, it only gets to eat a little because larger animals like lions will steal the food. This is because they are larger and stronger and can intimidate the cheetah. Also, Cheetah's might try to hide their food so this does not happen.
Major reasons for the extinction of the Asiatic cheetah in India
Hunting of blackbuck one the major prey species for Cheetah
Sport hunting
Bounty killings
Loss of habitats
