For such costly rich people blindly pay whatever amount to get them... This led hunting of poor animals in America, Asia and Africa.

Thank you! He was at a conservation, but I imagine he would be much happier in the wild. It breaks my heart how endangered these amazing animals are :(

Very dramatic, he looks very sad. And considering how endangered cheetahs are, I can imagine why. An emotive and powerful photo, really nice :)
