- A tiger, leopard and cheetah were sighted together in Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, Rajasthan, making it an extremely rare wildlife event in India.
- The sighting took place in Zone 9 near the Chakal River, with all three apex predators seen within a 1–2 km range at the same time.
- Experts stated that such coexistence is rare due to “niche partitioning”, where species reduce competition by using different habitats and hunting times.
- Tigers are dominant territorial carnivores, leopards are adaptable and avoid direct conflict, while cheetahs prefer open grasslands and rely on speed for hunting.
- Ranthambore Tiger Reserve in Rajasthan is a major biodiversity hotspot with around 70 tigers and rich wildlife diversity.
