The Ghost of the Grasslands: The Lost Empire of the Cheetah

They were the companions of emperors and the ghosts of the Indian grasslands. Then, they were gone.

In this episode of Simply Wild, we uncover the epic history of the Asiatic cheetah—from its golden age as a royal hunting partner in the Mughal Empire to the tragic silence that followed its extinction in the wild.

But the story doesn't end there. We dive into the ambitious, high-stakes, and controversial world of "Project Cheetah," asking the question: can a ghost truly be brought back to life?

This is a story of speed, power, history, and hope. A story you won't want to miss.
