India’s Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav has released recent footage from Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh showing translocated cheetahs thriving in the wild. The clips display adult males Agni and Vayu resting in the grassland after a successful hunt and full meal, underscoring their ability to capture prey without human assistance. A separate video captures two 18-month-old male cubs of cheetah Aasha forming a coalition — a social structure typical of wild male cheetahs — and resting after hunting. Wildlife officials regard such behaviour as an important indicator that the big cats are adapting normally to their new habitat.
