Front Cover
Oxford University Press, 1999 - Nature - 248 pages
This is a study of the cheetah (now extinct in India) through the ages of Indian history. The product of a decade of extensive research, this is the only work which traces the history and ecology of an animal species from prehistoric cave paintings to oral testimony. It provides a comprehensive account of the animal's interaction with man, charting its path to extinction and exploring the possibility of its reintroduction into India.
