Wild Tales with Dr. Laurie Marker

Take a deeper look into worldwide conservation issues with Zoo Miami’s Wild Tales speaker series.

Dr. Marker began working with cheetahs at Oregon’s Wildlife Safari in 1974, and in 1990, she launched CCF in Otjiwarongo, Namibia, the “Cheetah Capital of the World” with a mission of creating a permanent place for cheetahs on Earth. Currently, Dr. Marker is developing a second Cheetah Centre in Somaliland to support East African populations and serve as a base for CCF’s project to combat the illegal wildlife trade in cubs.
