Can cheetahs be black?

PoC avatarPosted on March 6, 2020 by Michael BroadMarch 6, 2020

Do cheetahs climb trees?

PoC avatarPosted on December 24, 2019 by Michael BroadDecember 24, 2019

Yes, cheetahs do climb trees but not as adeptly as leopards (the most skilled large cat climber). It has been said that their non-retractable claws are better suited to running and turning on the ground. In terms of tree climbing … Continue reading →
