Kuno National Park received its ‘National Park’ status in 2018. And, since then all efforts to ramp up the relocation of animals is high on the government’s agenda. The perfect ecosystem is ideal for most animals and birds. Moreover, the park is well-connected through air, rail, and road networks. Kuno is a haven for Asiatic Lions today. There is no dearth of prey and that has really impacted the lives of this endangered species. However, there are more reasons that catapult it to fame.
Reasons Decoded
- Kuno National Park is India’s first Cheetah Sanctuary or conservation project. You will be sad to know, that the last Cheetah was hunted down by an erstwhile Raja, in 1947. Cheetahs have been declared extinct in India. However, they are all-set to return to their land after many decades. This is a huge draw for tourists, who have only seen them on television. Cheetahs are the fastest land animal and you can witness that on a cheetah safari.
- Secondly, Gir National Park and Sanctuary was the only natural habitat for Asiatic Lions. However, they are now in another new habitat, which they can call a second home. We Are talking about the Kuno Palpur Sanctuary. The grasslands are the perfect setting for the lions to hunt down their prey.
