Is it legal to own a cheetah?

Answer 1

Conservation: Cheetahs have worldwide legal protection. However, in many national parks and reserves, they are persecuted by stronger predators. Outside protected areas they are killed by livestock owners because of predation. In February 1996, a Population Habitat Viability Analysis (PHVA) was held in Namibia which brought together all the stake-holders in cheetah conservation to address various concerns. This workshop assessed the threats to wild cheetahs in Namibia and identified steps needed for their long-term survival. The Cheetah Conservation Fund is working closely with farmers to minimize livestock losses to cheetahs and reduce killing.
