Watch as Houston Zoo carnivore keepers take our 2 cheetahs and an Anatolian shepherd for a walk! This special form of training and animal enrichment is only possible with thousands of hours of training. For more from the Houston Zoo, visit www.hooustonzoo.org

Beautiful animals. You are taking good care of them and, as a result, their lives are far more pleasant and less stressful than they would be in the wild. Yes, cheetahs are wild animals, but they are an endangered species, so the care you give them is a worthwhile thing.

I'm glad you've said this, many "take them out of the cage" people 1.) Dont understand that domesticated wild animals usually arent able to be re released due to some circumstances and 2.) That they are truly cared for hence why zoo's have tried to give the animals enough room to actually still be animals. It's the pet owners that are the issue for me though

Brings back fond memories when my local zoo took our first clouded leopards, Raja and Josie, on walkabout. I had brought my parents to see the zoo that morning and we were thrilled to be introduced to them. Got to pet them briefly, too. (Both leopards were most interested in the peacocks wandering about.)

You are EXACTLY RIGHT!!! And humans much more dangerous than "wild" animals (which domesticated cats, dogs, cheetahs, wolves, etc., etc. are NOT). Every day we live we are at risk of a human we think we know turning on us ... not to speak of humans out there looking for opportunities and/or victims.
