How many cheathas are left?

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, there are estimated to be around 7,000 cheetahs left in the wild. Their populations are primarily found in sub-Saharan Africa, with a small population in Iran. Cheetahs face significant threats from habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict, and poaching, leading to their classification as vulnerable by the IUCN. Conservation efforts are ongoing to help protect and increase their numbers.
