Education

The Cheetah Outreach Trust’s education programme is currently on hold but visits can be made to the Cheetah Outreach facility in Somerset West. See https://www.cheetah.co.za/co_visitorinformation.htm 

Education also takes place in the farming areas with field officers attending and giving talks at farmers meetings as well as community meetings in the cheetah range. Informal education takes place during visits to individual farmers related to predation management and cheetah and other predator conservation issues. The Cheetah Outreach Trust has an extensive farmer training manual that is provided to farmers prior to the placement of livestock guardian dogs. This ensures an understanding from the farmer about the livestock guardian dogs and what he can expect with the placement.
