This was taken at the Cheetah Conservation Fund just outside Otjiwarongo town.

Thanks to the work of this NGO, both within Namibia and worldwide there is now far greater awareness of the value of the cheetah within the ecosystem, and its endangered status. Encouragingly, increasing numbers of Namibian farmers (on whose land the majority of wild cheetah live) are implementing predator-friendly livestock management techniques.

I'd recommend you visit their site to find out more:
