Cheetahs brought from Namibia were introduced in the Kuno National Park located in ______.

Madhya Pradesh

The correct answer is Option (2) - Madhya Pradesh

The introduction of cheetahs from Namibia to the Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh, India, was part of a conservation effort aimed at reintroducing cheetahs into their native habitat in India. Historically, cheetahs were found across various parts of India, but due to habitat loss, hunting, and other factors, they became extinct in the country.

The Indian government, in collaboration with conservation organizations, initiated the Cheetah Reintroduction Project to bring cheetahs back to India. After extensive research and planning, cheetahs were sourced from Namibia, where a stable population exists.

Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh was chosen as one of the potential reintroduction sites due to its suitable habitat and conservation efforts. The park underwent habitat restoration and management activities to ensure it could support cheetah populations.

However, as of my last update in January 2022, the reintroduction process faced several challenges and delays, including legal hurdles and concerns regarding the readiness of the habitat. Therefore, the successful reintroduction of cheetahs into Kuno National Park and other potential sites in India remains a work in progress.
