Why were cheetahs send to India instead of Australia? The latter seems like a more suitable place for them.

y does Wauf love cheetahs so much
because they're the supermodels of the cat world. Seriously, look at this cheeto, isn't this the prettiest kitty you ever did see?
They're also underdogs who consistently get fucked over by nature and so you can't help but empathize with them. It kind of sucks to be the ultralight version of the lion in a place where there are actual lions around.
how did cheetahs survive for so long
because there's so many food to eat for them to catch
but their food gets stolen all the time
Don't get me wrong I love cheetahs, but they would get absolutely raped by the kangaroos. It's pretty funny to imagine a cheetah running after a kangaroo and then the kangaroo stops and turns around though. A cheetah getting prison wifed by a mutant rabbit on steroids isn't as fun of a picture though.
That's what one would logically think but OZ wildlife apparently gets gigamogged by basic bitch housecats to the point that Aussies have to step in. Cheetohs might be even more devastating, but they might be too specialized to adapt the way housecats did.
cats decimate every species small enough for them to hunt no matter where they're introduced
cats thrive there because of all the clueless small birds, reptiles, and other bullshit that they can eat. They still get mogged by roos, emus, etc. But the number of cats not dying of starvation probably offsets that, not to mention they'll just multiply like crazy when food is so plentiful. Lots of cats die, it's just that there's more cats.
Cheeteroonies are too big to eat little endangered birds and so all they have is repeated kangaroo beatings to look forwards to. Truly a nightmare.
These guys get eaten by 33 pounds dingos and cheetah will have no problem taking on them

Anon...They never existed in Australia unlike Asiatic Cheetah in India. Even introducing them in India seems stupid because African Cheetahs may not adapt to the environment.

why would Australia be suitable? there's really nothing there for them to prey upon, both native and invasive. I'm more curious why they didn't introduce them to North America considering there's plenty of both land AND suitable prey (considering cheetah-like cats lived here before), pic related. the reason these assholes can run 50+ was to escape the extinct North American Cheetahs (actually early relatives of the Puma).
I’m not too familiar, but don’t rural American’s get mad whenever predators get reintroduced to anywhere that isn’t Alaska? Like I remember a lot of shit with wolf and wild cat reintroductions going south due to angry farmers and hunters.
it's mostly farmers (even then, mainly just cattle farmers). hunters generally DGAF or tend to support shit like wolf reintroduction.
flipside to that argument is there really isn't anything on the average farm for a cheetah to prey on that wouldn't also be nabbed by the myriad of other "varmint" animals (skunks, yotes, opossums, etc.). cheetahs average like 80lbs and don't have the mass for larger things like horses or cattle. they're fairly specialized for taking small, fast antelope.
>there's really nothing there for them to prey upon
Kangaroos and emus will be a tasty meal for the cheetahs
haha OP is an idiot!
Australoids have a long history of intentionally introducing animals and then trying to genocide them later.
not even just animals, they introduced prickly pear cacti and the outback started being overrun with cactus until they introduced some caterpillar that fed on the prickly pears
India was part of their range in the past
Australia has already dealt with too much bullshit regarding non-native species
>Why were cheetahs send to India instead of Australia?
Cheetahfags are some of the most retarded posters on this site.
have a nice day
>dude just introduce a foreign species in an incredibly unique ecosystem full of animals that aren’t equipped to deal with this new competitor
not my problem
The leader is related to the brothers, right?
You could say the same about humans
