A study from December 2016 shows that the cheetah—the world’s fastest land animal—could soon be lost forever unless urgent conservation actions are taken across the big cat's range.

Due to these declines, the study’s authors are calling for the cheetah be up-listed from ‘Vulnerable’ to ‘Endangered’ on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Scientists are also urging an expansion of cheetah conservation, calling for efforts that span the cheetah's range and transcend national borders.

A December 2016 study from Zoological Society of London (ZSL), Panthera and Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) shows that cheetah numbers are crashing globally—just 7,100 cheetahs remain in the wild, driven out of 91% of their historic range. Cheetahs are renowned for their speed and spots, but the degree of persecution they face both inside and outside of protected areas is largely unrecognized.
