Kuno Cheetahs Roam Free, Villagers in Sheopur Live in Fear After Goat Attack

A sudden attack by two cheetahs on a goat in Sheopur’s Adwar and Sitakhedli villages has reignited concerns about safety around Kuno National Park. Residents claim the animals are moving unchecked outside park boundaries, putting both livestock and people at risk. The tracking team faced angry protests when it reached the spot, with villagers demanding stricter fencing and round-the-clock monitoring. Officials later announced compensation for the owner of the slain goat, which helped ease tensions temporarily. Yet many families remain worried, saying they cannot continue living under constant threat. Park authorities insist they are working on improved protocols, but residents want visible action before another incident occurs.
