Cheetah Run, Had to share!

[Laura]

Here is a video clip of the Cheetah Run and program up at the Animal Ark in Reno Nv. I used to do this and raise money for conservation. The Ark had a much better set up and situation, so we, Wild About Cats, sent our two cheetahs to them. Shaka and Zulu. Zulu is still there and running strong at 12. They have two younger cats as well. ( no breeding)
This place is great and so are the people. But I had to share.. My girl Zulu was a dream to work with. Literally a dream come true.
I used to stand at the end of those runs with the meat pan. To see those cats running at you so intense and so fast... it was a rush!

The clip is about bomb recovery. I'd love to see the Cheetah's run.

I thought it was just me who had goofed up somehow when I tried it yesterday. So glad you fixed it. That was extremely awesome and fascinating to see them really in action. Also so great for a captive cat to get to have that chance to really stretch out and be a cheetah.

Thanks so very very much for posting this!
