Death of an Asiatic cheetah triggers national outcry

In February 2023, a ten-month-old cheetah named Pirus died of kidney failure in Iran. The case caused great sadness and outrage. The animal species is a national symbol that also adorns works of art. Iran competed in the 2014 and 2018 World Cups with the symbol of an Asiatic cheetah on its jersey.

Iranian environmental and animal rights activists have been warning for years about the extinction of the Asiatic cheetah. A UN project is also working to preserve the subspecies. Numerous environmental activists in Iran have been sentenced to long prison terms in the past for their political activities. Critics accuse the authorities of not doing enough to protect the endangered animals."
