Description A beautiful cheetah in Reepark.

Yesterday I was in Reepark, a zoo in Denmark, best known for their cheetahs. The zoo (which is the only zoo with cheetahs in Denmark) is actually the biggest cheetah breeding centre in Europe, and they have about 18 cheetahs!

I really love this zoo, because all the animals have such big and nice exhibits ;D An example is their "Savanna" exhibit which contains; 8 giraffes, a black rhino (soon two), zebras, ostriches, wildebeests, blackbucks, blesbucks, eland antelopes and waterbucks. The whole exhibit takes up 3 hectares, which is the same as the whole Copenhagen Zoo O:

So the cheetahs and the other animals have a lot of place where they can run around and feel free ;D

Thank you!
I'm very proud of this photo (actually I think it's the best photo I've ever taken), because for once there's actually some interesting thing going on in it ;D
But cheetahs are beautiful creatures! So elegant.

Youre welcome Yes, its very interesting! And the fact that the blurry grass in the front is NOT an annoyance in the photo,but kind off is a great part of making the photo, that is quite extraordinary I think.

It kinda makes it seem like you are lying in the grass, and trying to keep the cheetah in the dark about it, instead of standing outside a fence xD

Geparder xD Men de har faktisk en Kinesisk leopard, dens bur er bare ikke færdigt endnu, så den er over på deres går ;D Til gengæld er de gulstrubede mårers bur lige belvet færdig, så nu løber de rundt og har masser af plads!
