Cheetah

Visiting my parents in Bristol at the weekend, we took my daughter out to the Wild Place Project near Bristol. They have a small selection of animals, my favourites were the cheetah, who were actually fairly active in the morning sun.

The Cheetah .

The cheetah is the fastest land animal in the world, reaching speeds of up to 113km/h. They can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 3 seconds. When running, cheetahs use their tail to steer, like a rudder for a boat. Cheetahs are the only big cat that can turn in mid-air while sprinting.

The sunlight was warm and bright on a September morning at the Denver Zoo, Colorado. The Cheetah could barely stay awake, but for a moment she regally sat up to survey her environment before returning to her nap.

The Cheetah's slender, long-legged body is built for speed. They are the fastest land animal in the world. Cheetahs can be distinguished from other big cats by their smaller size, spotted coats, small heads and ears and distinctive "tear stripes" that stretch from the corner of the eye to the side of the nose.

Have a fantastic week everyone! I'll try to visit as often as possible. Summer is such a busy time for me. Thanks for everything!

These Cheetah brothers were seen at Phinda Game Reserve in South Africa, which was the third destination of our African safari in October, 2015. These photos were taken in the late afternoon golden light on our first drive after arriving there. Seeing these wild cheetahs for the first time really took my breath away. They were too far apart to get all three in the same photo so another one is in the comment box. We ended up seeing 3 different groups in this protected area.

Many thanks for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
