Snapshot of CCF’s Achievements Over the Past 35 Years.

These are some of the key achievements of CCF over the past 35 years to save the cheetah.  Saving a species is about working with local people, improving people livelihood, protecting and restoring habitat, providing the knowledge and tools to empower people to contribute to conservation efforts, and scientific research is a constant to evaluate and innovate.

These achievements were made possible by the establishment of the CCF’s world-class Research, Conservation, and Education Center in Namibia, along with a new sanctuary in the Horn of Africa dedicated to caring for rescued cheetah cubs affected by the illegal wildlife trade. CCF is an active member of various conservation associations, and Dr. Laurie Marker, founder and executive director of CCF,  has received numerous awards for her outstanding contributions to conservation.
