18、 Cheetahs with radio Collars to track them. Na'an ku se Carnivore Conservation Research Project is focused on conserving the land, cultures and wildlife of Namibia and rescuing cheetahs, leopards and brown hyena who are threatened by an ever-shrinking habitat. The project, supported by Colchester Zoo, recently released a cheetah named Boris back in to the wild with a fitted radio collar that transmits GPS co-ordinates to the project to assist them in tracking his movements. The collar has helped the project identify that Boris has moved into areas where livestock farming is prevalent causing some anxiety amongst some local farmers. Fortunately, Boris ignored the goats and sheep and instead hunted springbok. The co-ordinates indicate that Boris prefers mountain bases, going against what most would have expected of a lone male
