This excursion needed it's own post because the phrase "Don't Touch The Cheetah's Face" was echoed so much, I lost count. It is definitely the motto for this holiday and is still in circulation in the G-F household today. Whilst in Stellenbosch we visited Cheetah Outreach in Somerset West. In order to stroke the cheetahs, you have to go in to the enclosure with a handler and be very quiet and mindful and be careful not to "Touch The Cheetah's Face". Thanks to April for encouraging us to go!
My North American friends, ever seen/heard of a caracal? Well hear ya go. Meet Malaika.
Meerkat Manor. So.Good!
Anatolian sheepdogs. Raised to be given to sheep farmers as a natural deterrent against cheetahs, jackals, and caracals to reduce the likelihood of the farmers needing to shoot these animals when they steal the livestock.
Just remember: "Don't Touch The Cheetah's Face"!
1. When I was being assessed - the one thing they told was NOT to say dont touch the face but rather the head otherwise people touch the head!! honestly
ReplyDelete2. Malaika is very soft and cutie
3. Minki bites but you can cuddle sebastian - he often climbs up peoples shirts (he's not fussy when it comes to gender either)
