" With their keen eyesight cheetahs can rest and search at the same time. They live
a vulnerable existence. Catching and killing prey is tricky and exhausting. But the most
serious risk comes from other predators, hyenas and lions. In a tragically high
percentage of cases, cheetahs will make a kill only to be robbed of it. They never
even try to defend it. Moreover, these predators will kill cheetah babies every time
they get the chance. I like this reaching, peering pose. It reminds me of the action
when, in full chase, the cheetah has to make a sudden turn."
