Every year hundreds of cheetah cubs are stolen from the wild, decimating the dwindling population of Africa's most endangered big cat. For every 5 cubs that are taken, only 1 survives.

Investigating this illegal trade and the role social media plays in fueling the demand, Not A Pet seeks to expose this shocking and cruel industry.
