WATCH: Park rangers risk their lives to free cheetah from harness in Fota Wildlife Park

Two park rangers risked life and limb to rescue a cheetah that got its paw caught on a feeding line at Fota Wildlife Park - and all using a net, a big brush and what appears to have been a coat.

The duo came to the aid of the stricken animal at around 3pm today during the regular 'Cheetah's Run' event at the wildlife park, writes Noel Baker of the Irish Examiner.
