Wild animal park
This Lovely young adult Cheetah is the ambassador for the park. They have bred over 170 cheetahs since the late 1970's and their cubs become part of the species survival plan moving to other zoos. He has a mixed breed akita dog as a part time companion. I love how he posed with the fall color in the background. Taken through chain link

He did jump up on a platform to pose for us. With the chain link, I could get more than a head close up. But the lighting and background were perfect!
Awesome pics
