Dr. Laurie Marker, founder and Executive Director of the Cheetah Conservation Fund, will share the latest updates on CCF’s work including hosting the world’s first Global Cheetah Summit, the reintroduction of animals into several historic regions, the disruption of the illegal wildlife trade in the Horn of Africa, and how CCF’s work for the past 34 years has become the gold standard in cheetah conservation.
Dr. Marker has dedicated her life to protecting and conserving cheetahs. She has developed innovative programs, such as the Livestock Guarding Dog program and Bushblok® fuel log, to mitigate human-wildlife conflict in Namibia. CCF’s work has helped stabilize the cheetah population in Namibia, and Laurie was instrumental in the successful cheetah reintroduction project in India.
