That's totally amazing! A lone male cheetah taking down a proper kudu... I would have thought that's only possible with a cheetah coaltion. :shock:

Thanks, O0 O0 he really was a big boy :-) we were there for more then an hour , no other cheetah around so he did it without any help , the kudu was an adult female.

Lisbeth,
We were looking for another cheetah too , but he was alone... the kudu was an adult female , we could see that well. From a distance we first thought it was a male leopard because of his size... we never saw such a big one before... :-) :-)
