Nitro, right on the Cheetah, used to be quite popular pets amongst the aristos in the 1920愀, they also used to train them in India (and Africa I believe) in a sport called "chirk hawking", not sure on spelling, involving the use of a cheetah and a hawk, the hawk only ever being fed with meat from the eye socket of the skull of the antelope being hunted. It got used to this and when slipped at the game went for the eyes, while the antelope was panicking and couldn愒 see well ! the cheetah was released and caught the antelope. I think it is still practiced in parts of the world, would love to see it. I personally never understood why anyone would want to shoot a cheetah, best, Mike
