Sukie, a border collie, was born 3 April, 2000. She helped in raising Zaza and Savannah, our first cheetah cubs from De Wildt, and now spends her time providing companionship to War Dance, our Anatolian shepherd breeding male.

Merlin
Merlin was born 22 April, 1996 and was our first Anatolian shepherd livestock guarding dog ambassador. He came to our programme in May 1998 as an ambassador of Cheetah Conservation Fund's non-lethal predator control programme, which assists in encouraging farmers to share their land with predators. For many years, Merlin was a favourite with our guests who were fascinated by this amazing breed. In his later years, he enjoyed a well-earned retirement.
Merlin died on 6 August, 2008 and is deeply missed by all of us. |
