This was the moment Samuel Cox witnessed a curious cheetah leaning in to take a closer look at an incoming armored ground cricket.
Samuel tells LatestSightings.com about his incredible story:
“I was more focused on photographing the uncollared cheetah and it was then that he decided to give me some good moments! It was a beautiful and brief moment that no one saw coming, but we were all in disbelief when it happened. The juxtaposition of size and power.”
“It’s an image that says so much, but at the same time is incredibly simple. Sometimes, less is indeed more.”
Cheetahs are a highly endangered species in Africa and in various areas they are collared. This serves to track and monitor the specie in order to preserve this species.
