WATCH! Cute cheetah cub video! Plus speedy new Busch Gardens ride!
The animal care team at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay has something new keeping them up at night - a four-week-old baby cheetah that requires regular feedings and 24-hour care!
The new cub was born at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens, but when zoo keepers saw the baby wasn’t eating and having trouble gaining weight, he was adopted by Busch Gardens Tampa Bay where he’s being hand-raised. Now, at a little more than two pounds, the cub is eating well, getting stronger and eagerly exploring his new home.
Have you heard about the amazing new attraction at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay? Inspired by the world's fastest land animal, it kicks off with the Cheetah Run, an ancient realm that lets you experience these majestic beasts by putting you just a whisker away from them.
Next, Cheetah Hunt lets you experience the unmatched speed and agility of the cheetah for yourself. This one-of-a-kind roller-coaster climbs high above the African landscape, then races down along the ground in a breathtaking 1350m sprint!
Cheetah Run and Cheetah Hunt open 27 May at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. To find out more, and order a free DVD, race along to seaworldparks.co.uk!
