Forest Team Attacked Tracking Cheetah in Rajasthan; Security Measures Raised After Cheetah Shooting in MPPreviousNext

A forest team from Madhya Pradesh tracking cheetah KGP-3 in Rajasthan's Karauli district was allegedly assaulted by villagers upset over a buffalo calf killed by the animal. Five to six individuals reportedly attacked forester Alok Prajapati, who sought police protection. An FIR has been filed, and investigations are ongoing. Separately, after a cheetah was shot dead in Morena, Madhya Pradesh, officials called for surveys of licensed firearms, crackdowns on illegal arms, increased patrolling, and community sensitization to protect cheetahs.
