Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) cares for orphaned, old or injured cheetahs that cannot be released back into the wild as they do not have the skills or physical capability to survive. Although CCF is not a welfare centre, it does accommodate these non-releasable cheetahs. If another approved home becomes available, CCF relocates these cheetahs to an alternate captive facility. However, many of these cheetahs are permanent residents of CCF.
Two of these cheetahs are now sponsored by Canadians who have generously donated through Cheetah Conservation Fund Canada. Click on the images below to learn more about Canada’s cheetahs!

By sponsoring a non-releasable cheetah, you can help cover part or all of the annual costs of caring for them. Each cheetah costs CCF an estimated $5,000 a year in care and includes food, veterinary care and pen maintenance.
