Cheetah Run is a unique program at Wild
Animal Park in northern San Diego County. Guests are trucked to
a small fenced tack to watch a cheetah chase a lure on a string
for about a hundred yards. |
|
|
|
Upon arriving at the tack, it's important
to scope out the situation because a small fence separates the 50
guests from the running cheetah and will severely limit photographic
opportunities. Employees will advise you not to take photos and
simply enjoy the beauty of the running cheetah.
