After another reunion with my buddy Gabriel the Cheetah at Cheetah Experience South Africa, I decided to reward him with how he prefers to greet me... laying planked out on my back on the ground. He always liked it when I was at my most vulnerable to groom and greet me, or hold me close with one of his hugs. I spent three weeks reacquainting and bonding with him before letting him do this to be sure I could trust him.
