The cheetahs were transported in special wooden crates by a modified Boeing plane that took off from the African country on Friday night. These animals were flown in an Air Force helicopter from Gwalior to Kuno in the Sheopur district, a distance of 165 kilometres. Prime Minister Modi will released three of them into an enclosure by operating a lever. Other dignitaries will then release the remaining cheetahs in other enclosures.
