We wish to congratulate everyone at the Philadelphia Zoo for 150 years of devotion in the field of conservation locally and globally, as they have contributed not only to CCF, but to species’ conservation and protecting wildlife around the world.
CCF is grateful to be a partner of the Philly Zoo to protect the cheetah and its habitat. I know you all are aware of our most recent association with Chris Bartos and Finn and the scat-sniffing dog program. Well, it is remarkable the success we are having here in Namibia thanks to the Zoo, their kind donation to CCF and Chris’s extraordinary time in training Finn who is doing great!!

Our thanks from all of us here at CCF Namibia and congratulations to the Philadelphia Zoo for 150 years of excellence and service to protecting endangered species around the world.
