Do cheetahs mate for life?

PoC avatarPosted on January 8, 2021 by Michael BroadJanuary 8, 2021

No, cheetahs do not mate for life. Quite the opposite. To be clear, ‘mating for life’ means that a male and female form a lifelong partnership. The behaviour of the cheetah is at the opposite end of the spectrum. There … Continue reading →

PoC avatarPosted on December 8, 2020 by Michael BroadDecember 8, 2020

NEWS AND COMMENT: This is a common sense and effective approach to substantially reducing the problem of cheetahs killing livestock in Namibia. It’s the first time I’ve seen this approach taken. Conflict between predators like the cheetah and farmers is … Continue reading →

Ear massage your cheetah

PoC avatarPosted on October 2, 2020 by Michael BroadOctober 2, 2020

Have you tried this one? The lady in the video calls it ear massaging. It seems she’s rubbing the area just below the ear and above the eyes on both sides. The cheetah purrs contentedly. In case you wondered whether … Continue reading →

Do cheetahs hunt at night?

PoC avatarPosted on July 31, 2020 by Michael BroadJuly 31, 2020

Cheetahs hunt mainly during the daytime but it depends on where they are. In the Sahara where it gets very hot they do most of their hunting at night and in the hours after daybreak. One website (BBC) states that … Continue reading →

Why are cheetahs endangered?

PoC avatarPosted on June 5, 2020 by Michael BroadJune 5, 2020

You have to ask why cheetahs are endangered almost every year because the cheetah population is declining rapidly and things are changing on the ground constantly. It is said that the planet is entering its sixth mass extinction and global … Continue reading →

Can cheetahs swim?

Why should cheetahs be saved?

PoC avatarPosted on April 29, 2020 by Michael BroadApril 29, 2020

Would you ask, “Why should humans be saved?’. You wouldn’t. It’s only humans who ask these questions because we have the power over animals to decide if they should or should not be saved from extinction in the wild. And … Continue reading →

Are cheetahs nocturnal?

PoC avatarPosted on April 29, 2020 by Michael BroadApril 29, 2020

Are cheetahs nocturnal? There isn’t a black-and-white answer to this question. It depends on where the cheetahs are. Although cheetahs mainly hunt by day, their hours vary slightly from place to place. For example, in the Sahara, where understandably it … Continue reading →
