India's cheetah population reaches 52 four years after reintroduction programme

India's cheetah population has increased to 52 individuals, marking significant progress in the reintroduction programme that began four years ago. The big cats have been reintroduced across multiple wildlife reserves as part of a conservation effort to restore the species to Indian landscapes.

The growth in population indicates successful adaptation of cheetahs in their reintroduced habitats. Wildlife authorities continue to monitor the animals and manage their welfare across the designated reserves.
