I've seen Cheetahs and Leopards in Kenya. Gave me such an unexplainable feeling...just amazing and beautiful.

of course they shouldn't be in a ZOO!

Director John Waters once told of a time when Jayne Mansfield would walk down Sunset Blvd. in a bikini and high heels with an ocelot on a lease as a publicity stunt. He said "I respect that".

There's a great movie called 'Duma' about a young boy in South Africa who runs away from home with his deceased father's motorcycle and his pet cheetah, Duma. Duma is riding in the sidecar facing forward as they race across the open plain. I loved that movie and those 4 beautiful cats that played the part of the lead.

Duma is a great movie - all the actors did a fantastic job (including those beautiful cheetahs, I agree!).

My favorite animal movie is "Brothers" about two tiger cubs who get separated by a hunter. It follows their adventure and eventual (and somewhat improbable) reuniting. For a change the animals don't have voice overs or anything. There are long shots of the cubs interacting with each other or other animals but it really works. I'm a cynical guy and not the kind of person that normally goes "awww" at cute animals but even I was enthralled.

Cheetahs are such beautiful animals, they have the most gorgeous eyes.

Love all the pictures but especially #1. Our cats would show their "tongue bud" when we would interrupt them cleaning themselves in mid-lick .... they would turn to us with their tongues sticking out with the "What!?!" look.

I love that look....
