\n

Seven decades after the Asiatic Cheetah was declared extinct in India, eight cheetahs were flown in from Namibia<\/a>, marking a much-awaited return for the big cat.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated his birthday with the majestic predators, releasing eight cubs of the African species at the Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh.<\/p>\n

\n

Another person who was perhaps even happier than the Prime Minister on Saturday was 83-year-old Dr M K Ranjitsinh.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A former IAS officer of the 1961 batch of Madhya Pradesh cadre and among the masterminds of the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, Ranjitsinh dreamt of bringing back cheetahs to the country even as a young boy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026I had heard that the last cheetah had been shot and this must have been in either 1948 or 1949. I was an avid reader of wildlife literature and I thought why can\u2019t we bring the cheetah back from somewhere. It was a dream and it\u2019s now come true. I always say the most difficult thing to kill is a good idea,\u201d Ranjitsinh, who belongs to the royal family of Wankaner, Gujarat, told The Indian Express<\/em>.<\/p>\n

While drafting the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, the former director of Wildlife Preservation had included the cheetah as a protected species, even though it was extinct.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The history of the cheetah in India\u00a0<\/h2>\n
\"Asiatic

While there was a time when the cheetah had a robust population across different corners of India, reports suggest that Maharaja Ramanuj Pratap Singh Deo of Koriya shot the last three surviving big cats in 1947. Over-hunting, loss of prey, and habitat loss led to the cheetah\u2019s extinction, which the Government of India officially declared in 1952.\u00a0<\/p>\n

India\u2019s first attempt to bring back the carnivore was in the early 70s. It was Ranjitsingh who spoke to Iran even then, but the negotiations stalled after the declaration of Emergency in \u201875 and the deposition of the Shah of Iran in 1979.<\/p>\n

Since then, Ranjitsinh and wildlife conservationist Divyabhanusinh Chavda have worked on the guidelines and policy to reintroduce cheetahs.<\/p>\n

The \u2018African Cheetah Introduction Project in India\u2019 was born in 2009, but it was only in 2020 that the Supreme Court gave its final approval.<\/a> The SC appointed Ranjitsinh to chair an expert committee set up for the relocation.<\/p>\n

Why Kuno was chosen<\/h2>\n
\n

Ranjitsinh told Village Square<\/em>, \u201cIn 1981, I went to Kuno and I was struck by the similarity of the habitat. The ruler of Gwalior had selected it as a very suitable area for lions and cheetahs in the 1920s. I declared Kuno as a sanctuary in 1981.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWhen I became the director of Wildlife Institute of India in 1985, I tried again to reintroduce the cheetah, but the numbers had fallen and there was no focus on conservation in Iran.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Addressing concerns of cheetahs being grassland animals and problems of rehabilitation, the former IAS officer told Village Square that bringing in such predators helps in habitat protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have learned, not only from the cheetah project, but also from the tiger and snow leopard projects, that bringing in an apex predator has a large cascading effect. It leads to better protection of the habitat \u2014 this is most important. Bringing back cheetahs has led to building and protection of the habitat not only for cheetahs but also the prey species. Kuno National Park has seen a spectacular recovery due to the reintroduction of cheetahs,\u201d said Ranjitsinh.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What would this relocation look like?\u00a0<\/h2>\n
\n
\"The

This is the first time in world history that a cheetah, or any large carnivore, is being relocated from a different continent. As per a statement issued by the Prime Minister\u2019s Office (PMO), Project Cheetah is the \u201cworld\u2019s first inter-continental large wild carnivore translocation project\u201d. <\/p>\n

Some experts and members of wildlife groups say this project will help increase the number of Asiatic cheetahs, which today only survive in a small population in Iran, wrote The National Geographic<\/em>. <\/p>\n

However, several have also raised several concerns, calling this a \u2018vanity project\u2019, premature, and risky. <\/p>\n

\n

Since Kuno has a leopard population, there is fear that the cheetahs may be attacked by them. There is also a fear that the cheetahs may stray outside and get killed either by animals or humans.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s putting the cart before the horse. I\u2019m not against the project, I\u2019m against this very tunnel vision thing of just bringing cheetahs and dumping them in the middle of India where there are 360 people per square kilometer,\u201d said Ullas Karanth, emeritus director for the nonprofit Center for Wildlife Studies and a specialist in large carnivores to National Geographic.<\/p>\n

Another independent conservation scientist Arjun Gopalaswamy argued that there is no chance for a free-ranging cheetah population now.<\/p>\n

\u201cCheetahs in India perished for a reason, which is human pressure. This has only gotten worse in the 70 years since the species disappeared. So the first question is, why is this attempt even being made?\u201d questioned Gopalaswamy in the National Geographic <\/em>report.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ranjitsingh told Times of India<\/em>, \u201cI interpret the return of the cheetah as a resolve of both the Indian people and government to let no wildlife species go extinct in the country. If God forbid it does, no effort will be spared to restore it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

For this former IAS officer, seeing his lifelong dream coming true on Saturday was another feather in his cap.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He earlier won the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014 for conservation of wildlife. He has also served as former secretary for forests & tourism in Madhya Pradesh<\/a>; director of wildlife preservation; chairman of Wildlife Trust of India (WTI); director general of WWF Tiger Conservation Programme (TCP); and is presently the regional adviser in nature conservation (Asia & Pacific) for UNEP.<\/p>\n

He has also been responsible for saving the central Indian Barasingha from extinction. Ransitsinh also established fourteen sanctuaries and eight national parks in Madhya Pradesh.<\/p>\n
