In the midst of trauma, terror and pandemics, there are always heroes who emerge. Beacons of hope who come in all shapes and sizes and help show humanity the way forward. We saw such a (tiny) hero arise…

You can support The Cheetah Preservation Foundation every time you shop!

Why support The Cheetah Preservation Foundation?
The cheetah is the world's fastest land animal and they are dangerously close to extinction. Less than 7000 of the big cats remain in the wild. Dozens of species face extinction across the world, and many more are increasingly vulnerable and threatened.
As a proud conservation and education facility, we receive no government funding, which is an enormous challenge with the overheads that we face. People seldom comprehend the massive costs that we face on a daily basis. Our facility is owned by a family and receives no government financial aid/funding as a zoological premise. Every day we are faced with exorbitant running costs of maintenance, water, electricity, etc… in addition our primary focus is to ensure that all the animals receive the highest standard medical attention and a calculated varied diet (species-specific) good enough for any human to eat.
“The work done at the ranch by our dedicated staff takes on a whole new meaning when you realize that the people involved in saving animals and educating the general public, will never see the result of their work in their lifetime. Never the less, we will keep on doing our best to ensure that extinction becomes just another word in the dictionary and not a reality. We have seen man do terrible things but we also know that man is capable of great things and it is towards greatness that we at the Cango Wildlife Ranch strive.” – Owner, Andrew Eriksen
