Madhya Pradesh\u2019s Kuno National Park became the country\u2019s first destination to officially host a cheetah safari for all visitors and tourists. The safari, which began on October 1, has since boosted the state\u2019s tourism sector, attracting global visitors with the chance to catch a glimpse of the world\u2019s fastest land animal in its natural habitat.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The cheetah <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/travel\/planning-a-safari-in-india-heres-everything-you-need-to-know-ws-l-9508712.html\">safari<\/a> also symbolises India\u2019s commitment towards wildlife restoration and conservation of the carnivore species, which has significantly reduced in number over the past decades. The special safari is part of the Cheetah Reintroduction Project, for which the Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh\u2019s Sheopur district was chosen as a reward for its expansive grasslands, abundant prey base and suitable climate.<\/p>\n<h4>More About Cheetah Safari<\/h4>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">It was back in 2022 when the Kuno National Park hosted a large-scale international relocation program, as per which cheetahs from Namibia and South Africa were provided with their habitats inside the park. Kuno currently boasts safe and sustainable shelters for 16 cheetahs, which are carefully managed by the park officials and experts from the forest department.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">The Kuno Cheetah Safari brings to wildlife enthusiasts an experience they will never forget. The park hosts its safaris during early mornings and late afternoons, when the cheetahs are naturally more active, go hunting, or simply roam about their territories. To make the adventure a safe and insightful prospect for all tourists, wildlife geeks, nature lovers and photographers, the officials ensure each safari group has a trained naturalist accompanying them. These provide visitors fascinating information related to cheetah behaviour, their hunting techniques and the animal\u2019s role in India\u2019s ecological balance.<\/p>\n<h4>How To Book The Cheetah Safari And Ticket Prices<\/h4>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The safari bookings at Kuno National Park are available online. Adventure seekers can secure their tickets on the official website of Madhya Pradesh\u2019s forest department. Bookings can also be made via authorised travel operators or wildlife tour companies linked officially with the park.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Entry is available for all visitors from the Tiktoli, Ahera, and Pipalbawdi gates that serve as safari\u2019s starting points. At each point, visitors are required to follow regulations for vehicle type, timing and capacity.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">As for the ticket pricing, the charge for a Gypsy Safari of up to 6 people has been placed at Rs 4,500 per vehicle.
