I wasn't that excited about visiting the Cheetah Park  but what an experience. The place is run by a German family that take in injured Cheetahs and have a large enclosed area where they keep them and feed them daily. I think they have something like 18 at the moment.

When we arrived in the afternoon it was just in time for feeding and we jumped on the utes which  they drove into the enclosure then threw the meet from. In the morning we stopped at the house where they have some Cheetahs that they've raised since they were cubs and that you could sit with and stroke. There was also a young giraffe which they'd helped and that hangs around which you could go up to as well.
