When thinking of cheetahs, there are many people who think of the appearance of hunting and eating harbors such as grasshoppers through Savanna, but the figure that such predator cheetah is playing with a child of Imararu, the prey, is playing with each other It is said that it was taken.

It is a cheetah which is said to have the property that it is easy for people to be naturally easily touched by an everyday personality, but when you do not need hunting, there may be one side that gently touches the animals to be hunted.

I thought that Impala's children were driven to three cheetahs and eaten, and the cheetahs started playing with Impala rather than trying to eat them.


Impala also walks up to the cheetahs whether you judged it to be okay. It seems that such a state lasted more than 15 minutes.


However, the moment the mouth of the cheetah came to the neck of the Impala ... ....


After all it was scary, Impala withdraws with a bold dash. It seems that the cheetahs never chased this Impala.


This is a photographer Michel Denis-Huot's in Kenya in October 2009Masai Mara Game ReserveIt was taken with. These three cheetahs seemed to be brothers away from their mothers at the age of 18 months, and when they were playing with Impala, they were considered to have been hungry so it seems that they did not try to eat Impala . Even though it is a hunter, you mean that you do not hunt uselessly.
