The Cincinnati Zoo (USA) recently welcomed a two-month-old baby cheetah. To help him socialize, the animal park introduced him to a puppy that will become his best friend. The meeting was filmed.
A friendship as touching as improbable has just been born at the zoo of Cincinnati. Rozia cheetah cub, and Daisya shelter puppy, were introduced to each other. Daisy should make Rozi feel less alone and less anxious. The two animals are destined to become inseparable.
On the video, we see that the first meeting between Rozi and Daisy is somewhat electric. Both discover a species they do not know. The concern is legitimate. We then see Daisy bark, and Rozi squeal and show his teeth. But the animals are curious and turn around. As time passes, their contact becomes easier and easier.
Daisy and Rozi aren’t the first dog/cheetah duo
Rozi was born in Wildlife Safari, Oregon. But her mother did not take care of her. This is a situation that can happen when a cheetah gives birth to just one cub instead of several. Rozi was then taken over by the zoo of Cincinnati, and fed by hand. But if she has food and toys, that is not enough to socialize her. Hence the need to involve Daisy. Daisy will be like the sister of Rozi. The two animals will be able to play, cuddle and spend a lot of time together.
If this duo was created, it is because the technique has already proven itself elsewhere, notably at the zoo of dallas or at the Safari Park of San Diegoas related Nerdist. To Cincinnatianother binomial already exists, it is Christhe cheetah, and his canine best friend Remus. These two get along wonderfully, as you can see in the video.
