The relocated Cheetahs could be seen by tourists in Madhya Pradesh for the first time in two years. In September, Pawan was the only cheetah that was roaming in the wild after its release, was found dead near a water body, according to a report by The Hindustan Times.

Before the birth of the two cubs, there were 24 cheetahs, including 12 cubs, at Kuno National Park, according to various reports.
