The Cheetah Conservation Fund's Education Manager, Shannon Kandjai, has called on Namibians and visitors alike to educate themselves on conserving cheetahs ahead of the international conference, which will cover the most up-to-date advances in conservation genetics.

The Cheetah Conservation Fund is advocating for cheetahs to live free in the wild by educating farmers that they can live in harmony with their predators.

Founded in 1991 by Dr. Laurie Marker, the Cheetah Conservation Fund has housed close to 15,000 cheetahs.
