Authorities in the Kuno National Park in India have started a disciplinary penalty against a forest worker who saw the Water of Geptus and its cubs in the video that took place on the Internet.
The man, the driver in the sanctuary, violated the instructions saying that only authorized staff can go to large cats, Park PTI officials said.
The cheetahs were declared extinct in India in 1952, the only large mammal that died out after the country’s independence.
They were again included in Kuna in 2022 as part of the ambitious resettlement plan.
The incident was born on Sunday, when a video of how a man who served a large cat began to spread on the Internet.
The footage shows that it pours water into a metal pan after it was urged to do it by some people who do not see in the video.
A moment later, a cheetah named Jul and her four cubs approach the pan and start drinking it.
Officials say it is not uncommon for some employees to offer water with large cats when they approach the border of the national park to lure them back into the forest.
Mom and her cubs were in the fields close to the border, PTI was informed by the additional main main conservatives of Forest Kumar Sharma.
“The monitoring team was usually instructed to try to deviate or lure cheetahs back if there is a situation not to create a man-ray conflict,” he said
However, only trained staff can do this, and the actions of the person went against the established protocol, he added.
“There are accurate instructions to move away from the cheetahs. Only authorized persons can go in the immediate vicinity of them to complete a certain task,” Mr. Sharma said.
Initial reports in the media called Video “warming”, but many on social media caused concern about the safety of humans and animals in such situations. Others suggested that the authorities could create reservoirs and reservoirs in the park so that cats do not need to be far in hot summer.
The villages on the border of the park were strained when the cheetahs wander through the fields and kill the animal. Last month, some villagers threw cats with stones to stop such attacks, new Indian express gag report. Officials talk They tried to increase the awareness in the villages so that people adapt to life near animals.
Twenty cheetahs were relocated from South Africa and Namibia to Kuno National Park in Madzha -Pradesh Central State between 2022 and 2023. In the first such intercontinental translocation of large cats.
Eight of them have since died for various reasons, including renal failure and mating injuries, causing concern about whether their conditions are suitable for them.
In 2023 South African and Namibian Experts who participated in the project wrote In the Supreme Court of India, saying that they believe that some of these deaths may be prevented by “the best animal monitoring and more suitable and timely veterinary assistance.”
Experts of the Security Fund (CCF), based in Namibia (CCF), which has participated in the project since its creation, also caused concern about insufficient accounting. They detach The BBC, in which the park management took place “virtually no scientific training” and the veterinarians were “too inexperienced to manage this caliber project.”
The park authorities have dismissed the allegations and say there are 26 cheetahs, including 17 in wild and nine others who are currently stored in the aviary.
This year, India is expected to receive another 20 cheetahs from South Africa. Officials say large cats have already been identified by an operational group in cooperation with the South African authorities.
