This amazing cat is surely one of the most beautiful. To celebrate WORLD CHEETAH DAY today,
I'd like to show some photos taken a few years ago in the Kruger National Park when we were lucky enough to see a family cross the road in front of us.
It was a glorious moment.
We'd been driving along for hours, seeing nothing. Then, I spotted a cat face in the long tall grass and shouted to my dad (who was driving) to stop. We waited for a few minutes until one, two, and then four cheetah appeared out of the grass and into the road in front of us.
They stopped for a moment, with one, then two lying on the warm road and taking a little break.....and then they were gone, melting into the bush again.
It's moments like this that make Kruger magical.
