What you did not mention the British were responsible for the extinction of most of our wild animals including cheetah

@skepticalfan

The term originated from the word "pussy" which is derived from the Old English word "puse" or "pusa" meaning "pocket" or "pouch".

One more thing they were wrong about?

The European Parliament on Thursday sharply criticized Morocco's Alaoui Makhzeni regime over the reality of press freedom in the kingdom, calling for the temporary release of detained journalists. He also demanded in a non-binding text "an end to harassment against all journalists in the country."

Aww here kitty kitty

@FiresCollide

This is insane. India has the fastest-growing population in the world and cheetahs need a lot of space. They're also notoriously anxious and sensitive. What a mess.

@akshayjain2415

India need BJP/Modi to do the right thing..

@Jesusiscominglive777

Maybe they should rethink this since it didn't go well trying to relocate these bc many dying🤧 they probably SHOULD stay in Africa not just bc of this but also there's not a lot of free space in India anymore🙏😇

@erasmus9732

Don't tell the locals.. Otherwise it will be back in the menu again.

@polygonalmasonary
