The Law of the Wild says "Kill only when you are Hungry"

The Law Of The Wild says kill only when you are hungry
       
Photographer Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenya 's Masai Mara in October last year, said he was astounded by what he saw
:
"These three brothers (cheetahs) have been living together since they left their mother at about 18 months old,' he said. 'On the morning we saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking quickly but stopping sometimes to play together. 'At one point, they met a group of impala who ran away.. But one youngster was not quick enough and the brothers caught it easily'."


These extraordinary scenes followed.

Sprint finish: Impala is off the menu as the youngster makes its exit
 
 
No claws for alarm: Astonishingly, these cheetahs, whose instinct is to hunt for food, decide to play with this baby impala
 
 Sticking your neck out: Oblivious to the danger, the impala appears to return the affection to the cheetahs


and then they just walked away without hurting him..........

New found friends: The new-found friends part with a farewell lick
 
 
Life is short... forgive quickly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably...and never regret anything that made you smile
