from Kim:
Our first day at CCF. We were very honored that Laurie took time out of her busy day to give us a personal tour.
The purpose of CCF
Dr Laurie Marker is the foremost cheetah specialist in the world. She came to Namibia in the late 1970s to study cheetah behavior. After learning of the plight of Namibia cheetahs trying to survive on Namibian farmlands, she established the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) with the motto "we can live together."
CCF provides a comprehensive solution to cheetah conservation and addresses the needs of people, plants and animals. Its operation encompasses four main areas: small stock management (goats and sheep), ecological management, a guard dog program and cheetah conservation and rescue.
