    The cubs have been Berlioz, Toulouse, and Marie.

    Cincy also has a new cub! A healthy female was born at Wildlife Safari about a month ago but since she was a singleton, she was pulled for hand-rearing and was sent to Cincinnati. Unfortunately, it is unknown who her parents are but she was officially named Rozi earlier today.

    I would love to see ZooTampa get back into cheetah. They have the space, they just need the will to do it.

    The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens are no longer a current holder for this species. Especially when it came to the recent passing of their only cheetah 1.0 “Steve”, who had to be humanely euthanized sometime last week.

    With the number of cubs being born this year, hopefully they'll bring in a few more cheetahs instead of getting a different species.

    Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium proudly announces the birth of four Cheetah cubs on November 4. 2022. The four cubs were born to mother Clio and father Refu at the Lee G. Simmons Wildlife Safari Park.

    Twenty cheetahs live at the Wildlife Safari Park, including 11 males, five females and the four cubs (unsexed). Additionally, five females (four sisters and their mother) live in the Scott African Grasslands at Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, while two males, who are part of the Zoo’s Interactive Animals Program, live off exhibit.

    I have yet to see any evidence that Animal Adventure Park ever received the two females, for whatever reason. They're mentioned in this video, and were put on the map (where camels used to be), but they are not on any social media for the place, aren't in any visitor photos on google, no PR announcement, etc.

    @IndianRhino I know this post is from more than a year ago, but you have a mistake here that no one else has mentioned yet. The Oregon Zoo and San Diego Zoo Safari Park swapped 2:0 Ranger and Strike for 0:2 Mary Jane and Darlene way back in 2017. :)

    Does anybody know what happened to 1.0 Bonde and 0.1 Kilima the cheetahs at the Dallas Zoo? I can't find out whether or not they have passed away or not? In addition, I can't figure out the status of 1.0 Winspear at Dallas Zoo. I know his sibling has passed away but I don't know if he is still alive. Does anyone know?
