In Namibia's Naankuse wildlife sanctuary is an amazing place where the Kalahari Bushmen and cheetahs live together in harmony. In the sanctuary there are three cheetahs, two females and one male. The two females lost their mother to a wild animal and the male lost his to a poacher, they are all orphans. The three cheetahs are not only spoiled by the bushmen but also by Lucky a three legged cheetah that is almost like a mother to them. I found it amazing that the bush men wold spoil them with food and mice to play with but also that Lucky taught them how to hunt and live in the wild.
The sad thing is that both bushmen and cheetah are on the endangered list, the estimates for cheetahs left in the wild is only 12,000 to 15,000 and for bushmen governments are making them move and their are only 35,000.
