A year ago, #cheetahcub Lily arrived at CCF’s Centre in Somaliland. A soldier found her, and notified CCF, who promptly retrieved her. Staff estimated Lily was about five months old. Today, Lily shares an enclosure with eight other #cheetahs – and is thriving!

Happy #NationalZooLoversDay in the US! Zoos worldwide actively help protect species in the wild – including #cheetahs ! CCF currently partners with dozens of #zoos around the world – and these institutions are a valuable source of support and collaboration!

Staff at CCF’s Field Centre in Namibia recently released three sibling #cheetahs back into the wild. CCF often has short-term rehabilitation cases - and only keeps the cheetahs long enough to increase their chances of survival in the wild.
