Wildlife Guide

Where to See Cheetahs

Cheetahs number approximately 6,500 in the wild, making them Africa's most endangered large cat. Their preference for open grasslands means the Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Kgalagadi offer the best sighting opportunities. Cheetahs hunt during daylight hours, making them one of the most exciting predators to observe on safari.
