Community Cheetah and Leopard Comparison sheet

We pass these out when visiting communities for the first time and as needed. We also have a Kiswahili version. The sheets have been so helpful in instilling knowledge on the basic differentiation of these two local, spotted, though very different felids!

Victory! During 2014 the project and scientists at the neighboring Rukinga sanctuary, were trying to confirm the presence of a female cheetah which had been sighted in years prior. While camera units were useful in identifying 5 male cheeta...hs; we thus far had not captured the female on the units. Covering a much larger area, as female cheetahs do, she was finally spotted, and with four healthy cubs. This looks promising for the Rukinga population. This location which lies between the Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks may also serve as a corridor for the connecting populations. Camera units will assist with confirmation over time.

Cameras being re-deployed in locations of protected areas for cheetah identification and monitoring. Here, we will also test the efficacy of "Obsession for Men", as a harmless luring technique for cheetahs. Given the close proximity of other large cats in the area (such as the girl, pictured here, this morning,) will be interesting to see what we capture...
