Solution

The correct option is D Cheetah
Until the 20th century, the asiatic cheetah was quite common and roamed all the way from Arabia to Iran, Afghanistan and India.
By the beginning of the twentieth century, the species was already heading for extinction in many areas. Reintroduction of the cheetah in India involves the artificial re-establishment of a population of cheetahs into areas, where they had previously existed.
