Science Art-Nature presents Challenges of Climate Change | |
| Topic: Habitat Loss / Changes in Food Quality and Availability / Reproductive Constraints |
The estimated 7,000 Cheetahs that remain are restricted to less than 10 percent of their historical range. Three-quarters live outside of protected areas. The cats are at risk of multiple threats including habitat loss, declining prey (such as favored Thomson’s gazelle) and reproductive constraints. Climate change exacerbates the on-going pressures.
