Cheetahs bound into view at park

FIVE of the world’s most endangered animals, born in Cork during the summer, were introduced to the public at Fota Wildlife Park yesterday.

The baby cheetahs were born on July 25. Each weighed approximately 1lb when born and now they weigh in at 4lbs each.

As many as 181 cheetahs have been born in Fota Wildlife Park since it first began rearing cheetahs in 1984.
