Cheetah Collaring

 

COLLAR A CHEETAH WITH EPIC ROAD

With the cheetah population dwindling in South Africa, scientists are eager to learn more about why the cheetah are disappearing and what can be done to rebuild the population. To find a solution, scientists uses satellite collars as a way for the behavior and health to be monitored and analyzed. Normally this would require a field ecologist to apply for funding from the South African government and engage in a lengthy negotiation, often to be told that there is no funding available. Epic Road matches the need for funding for this type of conservation work with our clients' desire to go on the ultimate adventure, while ensuring the survival of the species.
