Heavy monsoon rains and dense cloud cover are putting the Cheetah Project's monitoring system to the test in Madhya Pradesh. The system, which includes technology, vehicles, and communication networks, is operating under challenging conditions. Of the 30 radio-collared cheetahs, 12 are in fenced natural forest areas with mothers and cubs.
The remaining 18 cheetahs roam free across a landscape spanning six districts. The monitoring operation, which has no parallel anywhere else, is facing difficulties in tracking the animals accurately due to disrupted communication during heavy rainfall and cloud cover. Field teams are having to endure difficult weather conditions while maintaining vigilance to monitor the cheetahs.
