Cheetahs relocated in South Africa
Five cheetahs from the Mountain Zebra National park, in the Eastern Cape Province
of South Africa, have been successfully moved to the Endangered Species Centre at Hoedspruit in Limpopo on the fringes of the Kruger National Park.
The animals will undergo several months of quarantine here before being set free to mix with the indigenous population. South African National Parks have made the move to bring new bloodlines into the local population, as well as to protect the ecosystem of their old home where the cheetah population was getting too large.
The head of the Centre Lente Roode said, "These cheetahs will add new bloodlines to our current stock and assist in preventing in-breeding. We aim to maintain a large enough gene pool to be able to prevent the cheetah from becoming extinct; however some of these cheetahs will also be released in areas where necessary. This is a wonderful, encouraging and positive moment for conservation here at HESC.”
