CCF一家美國(guó)經(jīng)營(yíng)的挖掘開發(fā)獵豹周邊文化旅游生活與獵豹食物生活供給， 關(guān)注人與動(dòng)物共存問題的組織，得益于非洲大區(qū)優(yōu)秀的匹配機(jī)制

Cheetah Conservation Fund’s holistic conservation strategy is the key to success in saving the cheetah and its ecosystem. CCF works to develop best practices that benefit the entire ecosystem upon which the cheetah depends. CCF’s programs address the concerns for wildlife populations and the human communities that share the landscape

家畜護(hù)衛(wèi)犬
CCF 的牲畜護(hù)衛(wèi)犬 (LGD) 可以減少農(nóng)民牲畜損失。

Livestock Guarding Dogs

CCF’s Livestock Guarding Dog (LGD) program is proven to reduce livestock losses to predators. According to multiple long-term scientific studies, farmers with an LGD are less likely to trap or shoot cheetahs. LGDs are a major part of CCF’s holistic conservation strategy.

CCF 培育安納托利亞牧羊犬和康高犬成為 LGD?，F(xiàn)在，幾千年來，該品種在土耳其被用來保護(hù)小牲畜免受狼和熊的侵害。 LGD 作為幼犬被放置在納米比亞農(nóng)民手中。幼犬與牛群或羊群保持聯(lián)系。隨著它們的長(zhǎng)大，它們的體型和響亮的吠聲有助于嚇跑捕食者。

CCF breeds Anatolian shepherd and Kangal dogs to become LGDs. Now, and for thousands of years, the breed is used to guard small livestock against wolves and bears in Turkey. LGDs are placed with Namibian farmers as puppies. The puppies bond with the herd or flock. As they grow up, their size and loud bark help to scare predators away.

保護(hù)區(qū)
CCF 是納米比亞保護(hù)運(yùn)動(dòng)的成員。保護(hù)區(qū)由致力于負(fù)責(zé)任地管理野生動(dòng)物的土地所有者團(tuán)體經(jīng)營(yíng)。事實(shí)證明，保護(hù)納米比亞的野生動(dòng)物寶藏對(duì)保護(hù)區(qū)具有經(jīng)濟(jì)利益。

Conservancies

CCF is a member of Namibia’s Conservancy movement. Conservancies are operated by groups of land owners committed to responsibly manage wildlife. Protecting Namibia’s wildlife treasures is proven to be economically beneficial to conservancies.

因?yàn)楸Ｗo(hù)區(qū)的人們“擁有”野生動(dòng)物從中帶來的旅游獲益遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)大于捕殺，他們對(duì)保護(hù)野生動(dòng)物更感興趣。

Because people in the conservancies “own” the wildlife, they are far more interested in protecting it.

在納米比亞，保護(hù)區(qū)管理的地區(qū)對(duì)偷獵者的容忍度很低。大沃特堡景觀是CCF參與的水利和經(jīng)濟(jì)開發(fā)區(qū)。作為我們整體性經(jīng)濟(jì)經(jīng)營(yíng)發(fā)展從而實(shí)現(xiàn)保護(hù)戰(zhàn)略的一部分，CCF 與社區(qū)農(nóng)民和居住在沃特伯格高原周圍的人們雇傭合作。

In Namibia, areas governed by conservancies are more resistant to poachers. The Greater Waterberg Landscape is the conservancy and economic development area in which CCF participates. CCF works with communal farmers and people living around the Waterberg plateau as part of our holistic conservation strategy.

訓(xùn)練有素的糞便檢測(cè)犬幫助 CCF 遺傳學(xué)家在野外發(fā)現(xiàn)獵豹糞便。糞便狗向它們的處理者使用不同的信號(hào)來指示存在哪種類型的動(dòng)物糞便。采集樣本后，將其帶到實(shí)驗(yàn)室。提取 DNA 以識(shí)別個(gè)體獵豹并了解獵豹和其他食肉動(dòng)物種群結(jié)構(gòu)。

Scat Detection Dogs

Trained scat detection dogs help CCF geneticists find cheetah scat in the field. Scat dogs use different signals to their handler to indicate what type of animal scat is present. Once the sample is collected it is taken to the laboratory. DNA is extracted to identify individual cheetahs and understand cheetah and other carnivore population structures.

納米比亞獵豹種群研究

CCF 對(duì)納米比亞獵豹的種群研究自 1990 年以來一直在進(jìn)行，迄今已收集了 750 多個(gè)組織和 1000 個(gè)糞便樣本。這些樣本現(xiàn)在可以用于研究納米比亞獵豹種群超過 30 年的時(shí)間跨度。 CCF 50.000 公頃野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)區(qū)內(nèi)的種群監(jiān)測(cè)，結(jié)合微衛(wèi)星標(biāo)記的遺傳分析，使我們能夠通過視覺和遺傳特征識(shí)別個(gè)體獵豹。作為這項(xiàng)研究的一部分，Marker 博士在牛津大學(xué)獲得了博士學(xué)位，對(duì)來自 7 個(gè)納米比亞中北部地區(qū)的 322 個(gè)樣本進(jìn)行了遺傳評(píng)估，并按來源進(jìn)行了比較。為了進(jìn)一步拓寬我們對(duì)獵豹種群結(jié)構(gòu)的了解，計(jì)劃進(jìn)行景觀遺傳分析以評(píng)估南部非洲獵豹 A. j. jubatus 和它的多樣性。

Cheetah Population Study in Namibia

CCF’s population study for the Namibian cheetah has been ongoing since 1990, with over 750 tissue & 1000 scat samples collected to date. Those samples now allow for research on Namibian cheetah populations over a timespan of 30 years and counting. Population monitoring within CCF’s 50.000 hectares of wildlife conservancy, in combination with genetic analysis via microsatellite markers, allows us to identify individual cheetahs by both visual and genetic traits. As part of this study, Dr. Marker obtained her Phd with Oxford University, for which 322 samples from 7 north-central Namibian regions were assessed genetically, and compared by origin. To further broaden our insight in the structure of cheetah populations, landscape genetic analyses are planned to assess the southern African cheetah A. j. jubatus and it’s diversity.

非法野生動(dòng)物貿(mào)易研究

為了幫助打擊非法野生動(dòng)物貿(mào)易，CCF 與索馬里蘭野生動(dòng)物當(dāng)局合作，在索馬里蘭開設(shè)了一個(gè)新的安全屋，專門為從寵物貿(mào)易中恢復(fù)的獵豹幼崽建造。僅在 2019 年，遺傳學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)室就收到了來自 53 個(gè)人的 146 個(gè)樣本。 CCF 還從阿聯(lián)酋的各種獸醫(yī)和育種機(jī)構(gòu)收到了樣本。迄今為止，已提取和基因分型 97 種以檢測(cè)動(dòng)物的來源。除了基因工作外，CCF 還為阿聯(lián)酋啟動(dòng)了精子庫(kù)，并舉辦了多次研討會(huì)，討論成年雄性獵豹精子的收集和可行冷凍，以保護(hù)來源種群的遺傳多樣性。

CCF 在 CCF 研究區(qū)域內(nèi)識(shí)別植被并監(jiān)測(cè)生長(zhǎng)模式，確定生態(tài)管理的目標(biāo)區(qū)域，并調(diào)查灌木侵占如何影響生物多樣性。 CCF 還進(jìn)行獵物基地研究，以監(jiān)測(cè)游戲物種對(duì)棲息地的使用情況。 CCF 整理有關(guān)捕食的歷史數(shù)據(jù)，開發(fā)重新引入獵物物種的方法，并鼓勵(lì)其他獵豹分布國(guó)家的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化獵物研究。

研究項(xiàng)目包括棲息地恢復(fù)和生物質(zhì)技術(shù)開發(fā)的研究。 CCF 根據(jù)多項(xiàng)長(zhǎng)期研究的結(jié)果開發(fā)了 Bushblok 清潔燃燒燃料日志。
調(diào)查人類與野生動(dòng)物的沖突

關(guān)于人類與野生動(dòng)物沖突的教育 CCF 與農(nóng)民合作，以更好地了解傳統(tǒng)的農(nóng)場(chǎng)管理技術(shù)。還收集和研究了對(duì)捕食者的看法。

CCF 評(píng)估牲畜管理中的非致命捕食者控制方法。這些方法可以減少不分青紅皂白地清除景觀中的獵豹和其他捕食者。該研究計(jì)劃包括在 CCF 的模型農(nóng)場(chǎng)和 CCF 的牲畜護(hù)衛(wèi)犬進(jìn)行的研究。

Ecological Research and Biomass

CCF identifies vegetation and monitors growth patterns within CCF study areas, identifying target areas for ecological management, and investigating how bush encroachment affects biodiversity. CCF also conducts prey base studies that monitor habitat use by game species. CCF collates historical data regarding predation, develops methodologies for the reintroduction of prey species, and encourages standardized prey studies in other cheetah-range countries.

Research projects include studies on habitat restoration and biomass technology development. CCF developed Bushblok clean-burning fuel logs based on the findings of multiple long-term studies.

Investigating Human-Wildlife Conflict

Education on human-wildlife conflict CCF collaborates with farmers to better understand traditional farm management techniques. Perceptions on predators are also collected and studied.

CCF evaluates non-lethal predator control methods in livestock management. These methods can reduce the indiscriminate removal of cheetahs and other predators in the landscape. The research program includes studies conducted at CCF’s Model Farm and CCF’s Livestock Guarding Dogs.
