Cheetah Cubs: Meet Sparky at 3 Weeks

Shot on Location: 

Ndutu, Tanzania, February 2014 with the 1Dx and Canon 500mm f/4 

 

I nicknamed this cub Sparky because he had so much energy and personality for such a young cheetah. Although it's not possible to tell gender at this age, I refer to the cub as a "he" because he had the cutest little handlebar mustache markings.
