Save Big Cats!

Lions across Africa have declined to about 20,000. As few as 3,000 wild cheetahs roam Namibia and only 6,000 snow leopards remain in the Himalayas. National Geographic's Big Cats Initiative has been able to support pilot programs that effectively combat the poaching, poisoning, pesticides, and habitat loss that are eradicating big cats. They know what to do to save big cats and they need your help so that they can fully implement these conservation techniques. We have not a day to lose.

It is unclear whether they will ever be placed on public display. “Right now, they just need a period of quiet,” Doug Warmolts (director of animal care at the zoo) said.
