Cheetahs at Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh are receiving special ointment treatment to prevent septicemia, a deadly bacterial infection that killed three cheetahs last year. The cursorial predators, brought to India as part of a translocation project from South Africa and Namibia, are being treated with anti-ecto parasite medicine imported from South Africa. The ointment is applied to all 13 adult cheetahs to ensure their well-being during the rainy season.
