Better News . . . .
After a horrible week a couple of weeks ago where we lost Nalepo & one of her cubs to lions (the other two were taken to the orphanage ) and of course Malaika lost 3 of her cubs (possibly now 4 as she was seen yesterday without the cub but it could be in hiding) . . . . we have some good news
Amani the Cheetah has given birth to 3 cubs who are now about 3 weeks old and look absolutely beautiful

Lovely picture of Amani and her cubs taken by our guide Vincent yesterday. Unfortunately she has lost one of them but the other two look as if they are doing well which is great.
We didn't get to see them when we were away as the path to the den where she had stored the cubs had been cordined off to give her some time and space away from the public eye. We fully accepted this, these cheetah's need every bit of help they can get to raise their young

Just seen that on FB Doogs as you say a beautiful site, and really good that they gave her some space, and people like you understand, and accept it as much as you would like to see them

Doogs. Quite right to give them space and respect their privacy. Lovely to see Paul's pic and Vincent's pic, those 2 cubs are just so cute looking.
Thanks for sharing.

Oh No thats such sad news we know these things happen, but it's such a shame that all the investment the Mothers put into their cubs comes to nothing. Fingers X with only one to look after it will come through, and grow to adulthood
