The African acacia woodland and grasslands are home to a spotted feline known for its speed and grace. Many cheetahs prowl the south-eastern open plains of the Serengeti in Tanzania. Safely secluded in the tall grass lies a cheetah mother with her five cubs. She relaxes while she nurses her new-born. These peaceful family moments are scarce though, as the female will soon have to leave her litter alone in their lair to hunt for food.
