Cheetahs once used to be widespread across Africa and Asia. Today, cheetahs are extinct in much of their former Asian range and the vast majority of surviving populations are concentrated in sub-Saharan Africa. It is thought that there may be only some 10,000 cheetahs left in the wild, but there are no reliable estimates of the global population. Namibia is believed to hold the largest population, while Tanzania, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa also have significant populations.
