AnonyMouse_1195 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I have been mesmerised by BBC's Big Cat Live. There was a wonderful moment tonight when the cheetah cubs were playing, and the commentator spoke about how important it was for them to play, and said that their play was necessary to help them develop all the skills they will need as adults! Well we all know that don't we? Last night there was an amazing and magical moment when the three male cheetahs approached the cubs as if to attack them. One little cub stood up to them and they seemed puzzled, and then backed away. Kate, the female presenter, blamed her tears on the smoke from the fire. Hmmm. You can watch the live webcams here http://www.bbc.co.uk/bigcat/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_10713 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I watched it last year or the year before. I really enjoyed it, but at the end of the series the voiceover man said the one remaining cub had died. I know it is nature, but I was really upset and haven't been able to bring myself to watch it since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_1195 Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 I know it is really sad isn't it, and whilst I want the big cats to survive and identify with them, it is hard when I see the creatures they catch and kill for food.
