Cheetah Conservation

Despite a concerted worldwide awareness that cheetahs hover on the brink of extinction, cheetah populations continue to decline.

The cheetah's natural range is approximately 11,000 hectares, and the main threat facing cheetahs is the systemic conversion of land to agriculture and farming, expansion of human settlements, and the associated degredation of the landscape. Being a specialised hunter, cheetahs cannot easily adapt to fences strung across the open plains, packs of hunting dogs, and cruel gintraps set for marauding predators of the night.
