One more cheetah has been confirmed dead by wildlife authorities at the Kuno National Park, Madhya Pradesh on Wednesday. While a post-mortem is under way, the female nicknamed Dhatri and sourced from South Africa, is believed to have contracted a parasitic infection following repeatedly scratching its skin and wounding itself. This is the sixth death reported among the 20 cheetahs brought in from Namibia and South Africa.
