A study conducted in the Jhalana-Amagarh Conservation Reserve in Jaipur, India, found high densities of leopards and striped hyenas. From May to July 2025, researchers estimated leopard density at approximately 7.03 individuals per 10 km² and striped hyena density at about 4.06 individuals per 10 km² using camera traps. The study highlighted the nocturnal activity patterns of both species and their close spatial interactions within the urban protected area.
