Dinner time for a cheetah in captivity at Zelda’s Guest Farm, our campsite at Gobabis. Cheetahs usually prey on small antelopes such as Thomson's gazelles and impalas, but also hunt small mammals and birds. The cheetah gets as close to the prey as possible, then in a burst of speed it tries to outrun its quarry. Once the cheetah closes in, it knocks the prey to the ground with its paw and suffocates the animal with a bite to the neck. Once a cheetah has made a kill, it eats quickly and keeps an eye out for scavengers.

A leopard in captivity at Zelda’s Guest Farm, our campsite at Gobabis. The most secretive and elusive of the large carnivores, the leopard is also the shrewdest. Pound for pound, it is the strongest climber of the large cats and capable of killing prey larger than itself. The dark, irregular circles of its coat is called rosettes.
