I don’t think even a hungry cheetah is going to kill an adult human, they’re fast sure but too weak and would be unlikely to engage. They don’t show much aggression to humans and are easy to tame. There has never been a lethal attack on humans from a wild cheetah.
Someone is gonna need to double check this, but I feel like it’s saw a documentary that said cheetahs are super anxious… in the doc I feel like a guy slept in a makeshift shelter with cheetahs in a thunderstorm to help chill them out.
It sounds so bizarre that im not actually convinced this wasn’t a dream, though…
Sounds about right. In zoos they sometimes pair cheetah cubs with yellow lab puppies to help them deal with the stress of… existing while being a cheetah, I suppose.
There’s a series of photos from a wildlife photographer that are essentially selfies of him with a litter of cheetah cubs that the mother cheetah literally dropped in his lap while she went to go hunt. It’s been theorized that the only reason cheetahs have never been domesticated is that that they’re very difficult to breed in captivity.
Highly niche hunter go brrr. Not to mention that we look and taste weird. Bony as hell vertical pigs that point sticks at anything threatening aren’t an appetizing meal to the the cat equivalent of a hummingbird
Cheetahs are apparently super chill as long as they’re not hungry, otherwise they’ll eat you so they can be super chill again.

Recorded. They are so good no human ever survives. 🕵️
Well, they actually skirt the rules to stay out of the record books. They say it’s good strategy, but I think they’re all cheetahs.
They kill the witnesses as well
They know how to play Red Dead Redemption at least.

The truth is that everyone should be paired with a dog to help them deal with stress.
I have mine. It works wonders.
Can confirm.
Excuse me, but I’m gonna need to see that snoot booped.
Most certainly officer!
Came for the cheetahs, stayed for the adorable snoot boop
♥️
Goodest. Dog. Ever.
It depends on the dog though.
Border collies need to be paired with a human to keep them calm, they’re very highly strung dogs.
No way… Come on… 🥹 That’s adorable… come on now…

I thought they were domesticated many times throughout history, and used for hunting?
Tamed, not domesticated.
The system falls apart without training every generation.
I guess no need to go through the efforts of the classical definition of domestication when you can take them from the wild ready to tame

Me too bud, me too.
I can confirm this. Cheetos ads taught me this. They really are super chill
We’re too big and too dangerous.
A cheetah would need to be very desperate to attack a human.
Apparently, Chester should be mascotting for Snickers
