🌿🇮🇳 India makes history once again 🐆✨as the land of diversity and conservation! 🌟 The successful reintroduction of cheetahs to Kuno National Park marks a monumental milestone in wildlife conservation. 🎉🌳

🔙 7 decades after its extinction, India becomes the ONLY country in the world to host six species of big cats, as cheetahs return to their rightful home. 🌍🐾

Read our new blog post about the cheetah reintroduction:

Indien hat es in einem riskanten, teuren und umstrittenen Projekt geschafft, den vor 70 Jahren ausgestorbenen Geparden wiedereinzuführen.

🥳Amazing sighting and beautiful picture under difficult conditions by our client and professional photographer of the only known Black Panther in 🌳Pench National Park. That is a very lucky and once in a lifetime experience. We are very happy and proud that our client was able to spot this magical creature! The 🐆black leopard had not been seen for 4 months prior to this very recent sighting in April.

Cambodia has just announced that it will bring back 🐯🐅tigers to its empty 🌳forests. For this purpose, it will import a first batch of 4 tigers from India. This means that Bengal tigers are brought to the former range of the Indochinese subspecies. However, the international community has recently recategorized tigers into only to major subspecies: mainland and island tigers. What do you think about this endeavour?

Cambodia teams up with India to restore the Indochinese tiger population. Importing four tigers this year is just the beginning of a larger conservation effort.

Birds of prey are a common sight in the Indian jungle. This excited crested hawk eagle is feeding on a heron. It was very entertaining to watch him feed while he was continuoulsy screeching loudly. We didn‘t know why he did that though. Any ideas?

Tigers are definitely back from the brink: India has officially more than 3000 tigers, and the population is growing. It is, however, not growing as quickly as expected, and compared to the previous period between the 2014 and 2018 census it has slowed down substantially. Space for wild animals is rare in crowed India and conflict will rise. But there is hope!

Efforts to revive India’s tiger population began 50 years ago over fears the big cats were going extinct.

Good news, or not?

After a long long battle India is about to reintroduce 🐆African cheetas in the savanna brushland of Madhya Pradesh. Asiatic cheetas were hunted to extinction in India almost a century ago.
With reintroduction, India will soon be the only country in the world to be inhabited by 6 species of Big Cats: 🐅Bengal tiger, 🦁African lion, Indian leopard including black panther, snow leopard and clouded leopard. What do you think about this? Comment ⬇️

The first batch of eight wild cats to arrive at a wildlife sanctuary in Madhya Pradesh state next month, officials said.
