As a conservation charity, every visit, adoption, donation and ticket helps save species from extinction

Hip Spot Hooray!

December 4th is International Cheetah Day, and we’re celebrating all things fluffy, spotty and speedy.

Monarto Safari Park is home to 10 Cheetah including two adorable cubs Hani and Absame, named after two little Cheetah rescued by our conservation partner The Cheetah Conservation Fund in Somalia.

Read on to discover more about these beautiful big cats and catch up with the coalition during your next visit.

Watch and win a Kimbolton prize pack

Tune in to our Facebook video at 1pm today as we introduce you to the playful cubs.

Pay attention! During the video, we’ll reveal how our keepers can ‘spot’ the difference between Hani and Absame. Tell us what that difference is via the form, for your chance to win a pawesome prize pack* including:

Kimbolton Family Wine & Cheese Flight experience
Twin pack of the Kimbolton ‘Cheetah’ Cabernet Sauvignon

The race to save Africa’s most endangered big cat

Sadly vulnerable to extinction, the future of these striking carnivores is uncertain. With only an estimated 6,600 individuals remaining in eastern and south-western Africa, the species is afflicted by habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict and the illegal wildlife trade.

Statistically, birth rates for cheetahs in captivity are extremely low, so we’re particularly proud that Monarto Safari Park has successfully bred a number of cubs.

Zoos SA also works closely with partners on the ground including The Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) to safeguard the species in Africa.

Chance for Cheetah

In 2023, Zoos SA will welcome back our Gala event and this time we will be giving a chance to Cheetah.

This special night will see funds raised to champion Cheetah conservation at the CCF and in Monarto’s new Wild Africa Safari experience along with inspiring a new generation to love this vulnerable species and invest in their long-term survival.
