C heetah Experience Ashia is 35-hectare working agricultural farm where environmental values<br />
are applied with an emphasis on supporting the conservation of endangered big and small<br />
cats, particularly cheetahs. Founded in 2016 by husband and wife team Chantal Rischard and<br />
Stephan Illenberger, in partnership with Riana van Nieuwenhuizen, the founder of Cheetah<br />
Experience Bloemfontein, the aim of their sanctuary is to help prevent the decline of cheetah<br />
populations and increase the genetic gene pool through captive breeding programmes. These<br />
cheetahs will then be re-introduced into the wild through protected wildlife reserves by offering<br />
support to other ethical and sustainable conservation initiatives. They further aim to educate<br />
the public, especially the youth, about the plight of cheetahs.<br />
