Cheetah Cubs First Wild Meal Zebra Antelope Warthog Pigeon MOUSE With Some Hand Feeding To Tame

A wonderful encounter with Abi's cubs again, Kimya (Kimi), & Kayzer as I do some handfeeding, interact and show the variety of game foods they are being fed to prepare them for 'Live' hunts in the future. To feed these cheetahs by hand makes them trust you more and reduces aggression. The cubs show aggression towards each other but not YOU! That is safer and it helps when giving medicines to make sure they eat it.

From wart hog, zebra, antelope, pigeon, to a MOUSE! we give the cubs a variety of foods they might be exposed to in nature if they are to be released in the wild. The hide, bone, tissue, cartilage is all very good for them in their development as they grow. My plans are to have Kimi become a breeder but if she produces cubs for the project, I may release her one day to bare cubs on her own. Kayzer is not my cub so I don't know the planed for him and only time will tell but the owners have the best intentions and will either be a breeder or released for sure. Taking the cubs out into the open game reserve that resides next to the project, is essential training for them.

I hope to show some live hunts with the cubs but Abi cannot participate due to her bad hip. Another female cheetah that likes the cubs will be the training hunter.
