The Fars news agency quoted Saeed Yousafpour, Samnan's director general of environmental protection, as reporting that the cheetah keepers of Yuzakanam Cooperative Reserve found the lifeless body of "Fiqh", a male Asiatic cheetah over 10 years old. According to the announcement of this environmental agency, preliminary investigations, including severe wear of teeth and nails and the absence of external signs due to injury or conflict, show that this cheetah, first identified in 2019 as an adult cheetah with a territory in Turan, likely died of old age and a natural death. However, the exact cause of his death will be released after expert investigations are carried out. Yousafpour also emphasized that the long-term existence of "Fiqah" in the Turan and Yuzakanam regions shows the importance of habitat continuity and the role of the participation of local communities in the survival of the Asiatic cheetah.
