Do humans have a positive or a negative impact on the cheetah population?

Humans generally have a negative impact on the cheetah population due to habitat destruction, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict. As urban areas expand and agriculture increases, cheetah habitats are fragmented, reducing their available territory and prey. Additionally, illegal poaching for their skin and as exotic pets poses a significant threat. Conservation efforts are essential to mitigate these impacts and support cheetah populations.
