In Memory Of PIROUZ

This is a personal artwork I made in memory of Pirouz.
Pirouz was an Asiatic cheetah born in Iran. The child of two Asiatic cheetahs named "Iran" and "Firouz", Pirouz was the only surviving cub of the three that were born. As one of the last remaining Asiatic cheetahs in the world, Pirouz reached great popularity during his lifetime.
The three male cubs were born in captivity via a C section operation; this resulted in the mother not recognizing the cubs. Two of the cubs died shortly after birth, making Pirouz the only surviving cub.
On 28 February 2023, Pirouz reportedly died in the veterinary hospital in Iran at the age of ten months due to kidney failure.
At the time of his death, only a dozen Asiatic cheetahs remained in Iran, nine of which were male and three of which were female.

Pirouz became a symbol of hope for Iranian people.
Pirouz means Victory.
