Meet the cheetahs

Bailey

Bailey is a young female, who was first seen as a tiny little cub in September 2009 with her mother Amarula, and her two siblings, Amaretto, and Mr Birch. Since independence she has often been seen between the five hill track and Semetu kopjes. She was seen with her first litter of cubs in December 2009 when the cubs were about 6 weeks old.  The cubs are healthy young boys who are doing very well and are regularly seen getting up to mischief by jumping on cars to enjoy the view!

Bailey was last seen in June 2010.

Where Bailey has been seen:

Wet season: Five hills, Simba kopjes; Dry season: Maasai kopjes, Semetu kopjes, Seronera
