The incredible Cheetahs...were our 2024 featured animals '2025 ANIMAL TO BE REVEALED!'
Cheetah Territory has been meticulously designed to faithfully replicate the expansive natural habitat of these magnificent creatures. It boasts a diverse landscape adorned with lush grasses and towering trees, creating a verdant oasis that mirrors the cheetahs' native surroundings. Additionally, carefully curated rocky outcrops and sandy enclaves have been incorporated, providing perfect spots for the cheetahs to unwind and bask under the sun.
Covering an impressive expanse exceeding 10,000 square metres, which equates to approximately 2.5 acres, the reserve is divided into three distinct sections!
