The cheetah mother and cub came out of the bushes in Maasai Mara to bask in the warmth of the morning sun. Facing the sun, the mother dries off her wet fur, but the cub has a different idea. Energized by last night’s kill and the bright morning sun, the cub joyfully jumps and nibbles the mother’s ears, showing unlimited love and joy. Their strong social bond is a testament to true love. The mother quietly enjoys the attention the little one gives to her, glad that they have survived another day together.
