A cheetah begins preparing to be a hunter as young as 6 weeks old. A cheetah cub's play builds up its strength and coordination. Cubs follow their mother as she hunts. There the cheetah cubs can learn by observing. Soon, the young cheetahs know the routine of hunting in the morning and evening.
At the age of about six months, the real practice begins. The mother cheetah brings home live prey, maybe a young gazelle. The cubs must capture the gazelle. The cubs only have about two years to become good hunters. At the age of two, the young cheetahs are forced to become independent. They go out to find their own hunting territory. Now, it is all up to them. Cheetahs with good skills can live to be about twelve years old, but many are not so lucky.
