Field Notes

Habitat:

Eastern Cape, SA

Notes:

We spotted this female cheetah lying in the shade a long distance away & it wasn't until I had downloaded my photos that I realized she had a cub with her! The 1st photo is mom on her own, #2 is her with her cub, & #3 is the cub.
I was a real treat as I only saw cheetah 3 times in the 6 weeks I was in South Africa.
