Cheetah Cubs Play With Warthog Piglets In The Wild

Life throbs with vitality throughout the vast African savannah with playful cheetah cubs. Under the vast sky and amid the golden grass, a story of playful camaraderie among the young people living in the wild comes to life. Come along on a journey as we take in the energetic explorations of the world by cheetah and lion cubs.

A Peek into the Savannah

Perched atop a familiar mound, our young protagonists, Umbile and Moja, survey their domain. From this vantage point, they spot the peculiar ground hornbills and the amusing warthog family, each adding its unique charm to the canvas of the savannah.

Meanwhile Nima the lion cub, joins the fray with her own brand of enthusiasm. In a playful encounter with a mongoose, she discovers the thrill of pursuit and the joy of companionship amidst the tall grass.

Unexpected Encounters

Amidst their adventures, the cubs stumble upon a curious sight—a “wheelie-phants” unlike anything they’ve seen before. They are big like elephants but with lots of wheels! Despite its slumber they embark on a whimsical game, transforming the sleeping giant (the safari car) into their playground.

I am passionate about all animals and wildlife, especially their conservation and preservation. I grew up fascinated by the natural environment and feel most at peace surrounded by untouched nature. I live by sharing this passion with others through diving, as I am also a freediving guide - stepping into another realm, sharing the ocean with all of the intriguing marine life.
