Wilson, V.J.
Survey of the distribution and status of leopard & cheetah in Zimbabwe
2006 Full Book
There are still people who believe that there are thousands of cheetah left in Zimbabwe, but evidence obtained by the Carnivore Research Institute (CRI) of the Chipangali Wildlife Trust suggests otherwise. Until accurate numbers of cheetahs present in National Parks as well as on commercial farms, communal areas and recently resettled small holdings are known we have to assume from the evidence that the situation is not good. In order to obtain a more accurate and realistic picture of the number of cheetahs and leopards left in the country the Carnivore Research Institute has commenced a detailed country wide survey. The survey will also investigate the effects of changes in the use of the land on the distribution and status of leopard and cheetah.
