We Are Born Free

International wildlife charity rescuing and protecting wild animals from exploitation, and conserving threatened species and their natural habitats for generations to come.

Will you help save cheetahs this Christmas?

Blue was found injured by the roadside in Ethiopia, her mother missing and her sister dead beside her – her young fragile life hanging in the balance.

Frightened, critically injured, and in desperate need of our help, your gift today could help look after Blue and provide a vital lifeline for rescued cheetahs in Ethiopia.
