Remembering Cheetahs: beautiful photographs of the world's fastest mammal
Remembering Cheetahs is the fifth instalment in the charity book series by the Remembering Wildlife team, and features images donated by more than 70 of the world's top wildlife photographers.
Remembering Cheetahs is the fifth book in the Remembering Wildlife series, which raises awareness of the plight of some of the world’s most endangered species, as well as raise funds to protect them.
There are only around 7,100 cheetahs left in the wild. As well as being trafficked as a pet or killed for fur or body parts, cheetahs are impacted by habitat loss and even high-density tourism. In Iran, the Asiatic cheetah is down to fewer than 50, while in India they have been extinct for 60 years.
People remain the key to the survival of cheetahs and in these most difficult of times, looking after them is imperative, as is safeguarding land where cheetahs can live. Reintroduction projects, such as that being consulted upon in India, may become all the more critical.
