Cheetah Relocation and Monitoring

The video discusses the reintroduction of cheetahs to Mountain Zebra National Park to restore predator-prey balance. Researchers track cheetah movements using GPS to manage conflicts with farmers. Problematic cheetahs are relocated, and the project aims to help both wildlife and local farmers. The cheetahs, named Batman and Robin, are acclimatized in an enclosure before being released into the park, where they adapt well, indicating a healthier ecosystem.
