Why Are Cheetahs Tracked?

The cheetahs are tracked to get a sense of their home ranges and behaviors, whether or not they have cubs, to see what challenges they face in the wild, and to know the cause of their eventual death. It is also to track them for the Early Warning System that some farmers choose to participate in (where a signal is set off if the cat goes into a farm and Cheetah Conservation Fund staff can let the farmer know that the animal is on his property and take the necessary precautions like lock up his livestock, release his dog, etc.)

How Are Cheetahs Tracked?

The cheetahs are tracked using 1 of 2 kinds of radio collars—all are spotted and camouflaged as though they are part of the cheetah. One kind needs to be changed every 14–18 months or the battery dies, and the other one falls off after that same time period. Whether or not a cheetah is collared with one or the other depends on the cat's true wild nature (a.k.a. can we get close enough to safely dart it and change the collar, or is it incredibly elusive?) and on its release place. Cats in Erindi Private Game Reserve don't have the risk of running into farms, whereas cats released elsewhere have the potential to cross paths with farmers and livestock.

Does Tracking Harm The Cheetahs?

Not in the slightest. The animals are humanely sedated and the collar is placed so that it cannot come off but fits comfortably. They are not placed on cats younger than 2 years of age so that full growth has been reached. The collar is golden with spots that blend right into the cheetah's fur and does not impair their ability to run, hunt, mate, or raise cubs.

Are Cheetahs Endangered?

Cheetahs are listed as Vulnerable according to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and they face a number of challenges in the wild, including habitat loss and loss of prey as a result, human-animal conflict with nearby farmers, and illegal trade for their body parts and of cubs as pets.

Where Do Cheetahs Live?

Cheetahs live mainly in sub-Saharan Africa, including Namibia, Kenya, and Botswana. There is also one critically endangered population of Asiatic cheetahs located in Iran.

What Does a Cheetah Symbolize?

Cheetahs are popular symbols of speed, agility, and focus! In some cultures, they may symbolize a warrior spirit, trust in one’s instincts, and embracing independence and change.

How Long Does a Cheetah Live?

In the wild, these big cats typically live around 8–10 years, whereas in captivity cheetahs can survive as long as 17–20 years.
