Baby cheetah joins Busch Gardens, FL

This four-week-old baby cheetah that recently moved to Busch Gardens in Tampa.

The new cub was born at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens to a mother who wasn’t able to care for him. When zoo keepers saw that the baby was not eating and having trouble gaining weight, they made the decision to hand-raise him. Now, at a little more than two pounds, the cub is eating well, getting stronger and eagerly exploring his new home. He requires regular feedings and 24-hour care.
