Cheetahs

Seeing the movie African Cats yesterday inspired me to dig up some images of cheetahs that I took in Tanzania in 1998. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie which puts you right on the ground with cheetahs and lions as they go about their perilous lives and struggle to raise their cubs.




On the Serengeti I watched these sibling cheetahs chase down a gazelle. By the time we arrived at the kill site they had almost completely devoured their prey.  They seemed utterly oblivious to our presence. A 3D cross-view is below.
