On this Endangered Species Day, we’re shining a light on the critically endangered Persian Cheetah through the arts. Featured in our Wildlife Jewels® Collection is Turquoise the Cheetah — an original painting inspired by this rare and magnificent cheetah. This artwork—and the initiative it represents—aims to raise awareness, foster education, and inspire action to protect cheetahs from extinction.
As threats to our planet’s majestic wildlife continue to rise, many species are facing an urgent and growing crisis. Let’s stand together to protect endangered species—and all wildlife—to ensure every wildlife has the chance to thrive.
