How the U.S. Big Cat Public Safety Act is Saving Endangered Wildlife: A Model for Global Action

The illegal trafficking of cheetah cubs for exotic pet ownership is driving the species toward extinction. With fewer than 7,000 cheetahs left in the wild, countries must act to protect these majestic animals. The U.S. set a powerful example by passing the Big Cat Public Safety Act in 2022, which banned private ownership of big cats and ended dangerous practices like cub petting. This groundbreaking law has virtually ended big cat exploitation in the U.S., and now other nations must follow suit to combat wildlife trafficking and ensure a future where big cats can thrive in the wild.
