December 7, 2025
A male cheetah cub from Kuno National Park died early Sunday after being hit by an unidentified vehicle on a national highway in Ghatigaon, Gwalior district, Madhya Pradesh, police said. The cub, about 20 months old, was separated from its mother when it ventured out of the park. Gwalior Zone Inspector General of Police Arvind Saxena told PTI, "We have reduced traffic and curtailed speed on the highway to prevent any untoward incident, as another male cub separated from the same mother might still be around. Both were earlier spotted together." Forest officials arrived at the spot and are now searching for the other cub in the area. This follows the death of another cheetah cub found dead on Friday, just a day after being released into the wild at Kuno National Park.
