CheetahTV

CheetahTV, produced by the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF), is an engaging and thought-provoking series that brings conservation to life through entertaining storytelling, breathtaking visuals, and expert insights. While cheetahs are at the heart of the program, the series takes a holistic approach, showcasing the scientists, farmers, artists, educators, photographers, and media personalities who all contribute to protecting wildlife and the natural world.

A Multi-Faceted Approach to Conservation

Each episode of CheetahTV blends entertainment with education, offering audiences an exciting look at the delicate balance between cheetahs, their ecosystems, and the people who share the land with them. The series covers:

  • The Role of Cheetahs in Ecosystems – As apex predators, cheetahs help regulate prey populations and maintain biodiversity. Their survival is deeply tied to healthy grasslands, water sources, and sustainable land use.
  • Human-Wildlife Coexistence – The show highlights CCF’s community-driven initiatives, such as the Livestock Guarding Dog Program, which helps farmers protect their herds without harming cheetahs. Through sustainable agriculture, eco-tourism, and rewilding efforts, Cheetah TV demonstrates how conservation benefits both people and wildlife.
  • Science & Innovation – From DNA research to tracking technology, CCF’s groundbreaking scientific work is essential to understanding and protecting cheetahs. Episodes feature conservation genetics, habitat restoration, and anti-poaching strategies.
  • Community & Cultural Connections – Conservation is only successful when local people are involved. The show tells inspiring stories of indigenous communities, farmers, and youth leaders who are helping shape the future of conservation.
