The team members informed the veterinary doctors at the park and the control room. A team of doctors reached the spot but when the cheetah was spotted again at around 9 am, it was found to be dead, said officials.
It had injury marks on its neck and back and a detailed report about the exact cause is awaited.

In February 2023, 12 more cheetahs were brought to the KNP from South Africa.
