Happy International Cheetah Day!
On this International Cheetah Day, we are happy to announce Wildlife Jewels Collections has now expanded! The Wildlife Jewels Collections originated from a birds of paradise painting in 2003 to a fine art collection in 2014 sharing stories of unique wildlife, and blossoming into the world of fashion with our Turquoise the Cheetah painting.
Wildlife Jewels is now a visionary dual organization, comprising Wildlife Jewels LLC (site to be launched soon), an entity dedicated to showcasing our Wildlife Jewels charity collections across fine arts, jewelry, fashion, and decor. Featuring species-of-concern, threatened, and extinct wildlife, aiming to amplify awareness and drive support for wildlife protection.
Simultaneously, Wildlife Jewels ORG, our 501(c)(3) public charity, combines the best of Wildlife Jewels—merging arts, science, tech, and collaborations to protect wildlife from human-caused threats, through conservation, action, and education.
Get ready for the reveal of our new "Wildlife Jewels Collections" online boutique, showcasing the spectacular Turquoise, the Persian Cheetah collection—a tribute to the magnificent cheetah! Stay tuned for the grand launch!
Threats to the Cheetah
Majestic cheetahs are on the brink of extinction in the wild. Mainly due to habitat destruction, illegal trade, wildlife crime, and human conflict. Fewer than 8,000 African cheetahs are living in the wild, and fewer than 10 asiatic cheetahs are left in the wild.
Stay tuned for exciting announcements and the launch of our Cheetah Conservation and charity Collection and initiatives!
