Cheetah cub dies in Kuno National Park; officials say was weak since birth

A cheetah cub, born at Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh two months back, died on Tuesday, the forest department said. The latest fatality took the death toll of cheetahs in KNP to four in the last two months, including three felines translocated from African countries. Prima facie, the cub died of weakness, a Forest department release said. The monitoring team found that one of the four cubs of feline Jwala' was lying at the spot where they were spotted earlier while three other cubs were roaming with their mother. The team alerted veterinarians who rushed to the spot and gave necessary treatment to the cub, but it died, the release said. It seems the cub died because of weakness as it was weak since birth, said the release. Cheetah Jwala, earlier known as Siyaya, was brought from Namibia to KNP in Sheopur district in September 2022. She gave birth to four cubs in the last week of March this year. Cheetahs were reintroduced in India, 70 years after the species was declared .

The Rajya Sabha MP said he does not want to be chief minister again. I don't want to become chief minister, but MP Congress president Kamal Nath will be the chief minister (if Congress wins). Poll tickets would be given on the basis of a survey for which a team is on the job, the veteran Congress leader told reporters here while responding to a query on whether he would become the next CM if his party wins.
