This atlas is in beta. I am still checking facts, ranges, and species lists, so some of it may be wrong or incomplete. It is here early so these places get seen. If you spot an error, write to me.

Kuno National Park

Beta

Kuno is the site of India's cheetah reintroduction, a dry deciduous and grassland country on the Kuno River. Years of village relocation opened the grassland and built up the prey base the cats need.

Why this place matters

The exclusive Indian habitat actively managed for the restoration of the cheetah.

Plan your visit

Winter provides clear visibility across the savanna tracts for tracking cursorial predators.

Safari
Jeep
Typical sightings
Leopards on rocky outcrops; vast herds of chital in the open grassland.
Light and terrain
Extreme heat distortion in summer months severely degrades telephoto image quality across the open savanna.
Good to know
Cheetah viewing is highly restricted and subject to rolling closures based on acclimatization.
