CCF Southern California Chapter's Fundraising Page

Thank you for visiting the Cheetah Conservation Fund's Southern California Chapter's fundraising page!

The world's fastest land animal, the sleek and long-legged cheetah, Acinonyx Jubatus, is losing its race for survival. Loss of habitat, conflict with humans, as well as its own loss of genetic variation, are the main threats facing the cheetah today. The cheetah needs large expanses of land to survive, but with changes in land use and habitat pressues, such as bush encroachment, this area is becoming smaller and smaller. Unfortunately, captive breeding efforts have not proven meaningful to the cheetah's hopes of survival.

Cheetahs can reach speeds of over 70 mph, but are extremely clumsy fighters and, more flight than fight, for a predator, they are remarkably gentle and they lose much of their prey to the more agressive predators such as lions and hyenas, who chase them away and steal their food. In the last 100 years we have lost about 90 percent of the world's population of cheetahs.

Donating through this website is simple, cheetah-fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our chapter's fundraising efforts to work towards saving the cheetah from extinction.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
