Six cheetahs eating together :shock: Is it possible that a cheetah mom has been able to raise 5 cubs? :-?

I can only see five. -O- And although I haven't tried to match up proper, I'm pretty sure it's Hanri with her and Corinne's kids.
Never heard of a set of five cubs in the KTP and I'm pretty sure there would have been reports. Also, the timing and location
fits for it to be Hanri.

Yes, they were "only" 5. When I saw them, I did not notice it was a mother and cubs, as they appear all the same size.

Here are some other pics of the group :
