Three young female cheetahs, captured in the wild and destined to be sold as exotic pets, have been rescued by Born Free Foundation Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority. The cheetahs are now safe at Born Free’s Ensessakotteh: a Wildlife Rescue, Conservation, and Education Centre in Ethiopia. Adam M. Roberts, CEO of Born Free USA and the Born Free Foundation, said the organizations are “clamping down on this barbaric trade in vulnerable wild animals.” Roberts continues, “I am proud that the Born Free Ethiopia team is leading the way in tackling the illegal trade head-on.”
