Cutest pic ever. I hear cheetahs make great pets, I saw video of some man that slept with a couple, cuddling at night.

I don't know how endangered they are, I am guessing a lot, but if they come from the already captive population it's not bad, not as long as you attempt to find them a mate to breed to keep their population alive.

A big problem for captive cheetahs is that their meeting rituals (as I understand it) involve running across plains for miles. And that they are naturally very nervous (hence the puppy). I've read that breeding them in captivity is extremely difficult.

Cheetah Whisperer is who you’re referring to. Fantastic content.
