Cheetahs

Cheetahs are recognized as Vulnerable under the IUCN and are listed in Appendix I of CITES. Threats to cheetahs include poaching, wildlife trade, trophy hunting, habitat loss, conflict with humans, and captivity.

Protect these precious animals by symbolically adopting a cheetah! Your adoption gift will support Born Free USA’s work to protect cheetahs at CITES, to strength the U.S. Endangered Species Act, which cheetahs are listed under, and our efforts combat the illegal trade in cheetahs through our enforcement support in West Africa. For only $60 a year or $7 a month, you can create a brighter future for these animals.

In addition to knowing you are protecting this species, you will receive an adoption package that includes an adoption certificate, a species information sheet, a photo of a cheetah in the wild, and updates about our campaigns work. You can maximize your adoption gift by selecting the check box that reads "I'd like to increase the amount that helps cheetahs by making this adoption virtual" to receive adoption materials via email (without a plush toy).
