Welcome to The Cheetah SSP
The Cheetah SSP works towards a goal of sustainability and conservation by building a long-term, healthy cheetah population in North America, while putting into place financial mechanisms that enhance conservation of this species in the wild, and research that supports the population – both in situ and ex situ.
Mission
The mission of an AZA Species Survival Plan® (SSP) Program is to manage and conserve a select and typically threatened or endangered, ex situ species population with the required cooperation of AZA-Accredited Zoos and Aquariums, Certified Related Facilities, and Approved Non-Member Participants.
