Rescue mission

Saving the Iranian cheetah from extinction

by Mohammad Ala

Asiatic Cheetah is on the verge of extinction. A small number of these species have been spotted in Iran. The main threat is the destruction of their habitat and loss of prey species, Iran is developing rapidly and spread of industries and human settlements will displace these Cheetahs.

Several organizations have come together to protect what is left of the Asiatic cheetah population. Some of the activities for this purpose are educating the public, increasing awareness and protecting the areas where they have been seen.

If you know any organization or individual who is interested in helping please contact contact me. Enjoy the pictures taken by the Sam Khosravifard on August 31 in Tehran. Interested individuals came together to educate the public, especially children.

The future of Asiatic Cheetah depends on everyone's support, not just Iranians who live in Iran.
