Marlice van Vuuren is a Namibian animal conservationist and a woman very familiar with the ways of the African cheetah. She should know, her last 34 years were spent growing up around animals in Namibia, and she currently runs the N/a'an ku sê Wildlife Sanctuary.
Awww... How cute!!!!! I like at the end how they were cuddling up to her, kissing her, and letting her pet them. :love:
She must have the Cheetah knack. They'd eat me alive!! Literally! :-O
is she going to be the next timmy treadwell?
She is very pretty...............so far.
Fake. Total Fake.
Cheetah's are solitary animals. At most one might find siblings or a mother and nearly grown cubs together in the wild. One cheetah did not raise all those cubs to that age. This is staged and the animals obviously were familiar with her before any filming began.
Most likely what you see is pen raised animals that have been hand fed.
Sorry to burst any bubbles, but this is not what it is reported to be.

Those cheetahs are more affectionate than my two housecats.....;-)
Does this mean I can have one as a pet??? 😀 :cat: :angel:
Angel,
These cats are like any wild animal. They may seem cute and cuddly one moment and the next they can grab you by the throat and hold on until you are dead.
Real animals are nothing like "Bambi". They can be beautiful and awesome but in the end we must remember they are wild animals. They do not hold the same values we do. They live by instinct and when it kicks in and says to kill you, they will listen.

PS: Please do not take any of that as meaning I do not like wild animals. Quite the opposite. I just always remember they are best when they remain wild and free of human interference.
