Prey
The chirping cheetahs are making is like a high pitched bark which they use to locate other cheetahs.
This is one of the african cheetahs(Acinonyx Jubatus) from the Krefelder Zoo.
You can't imagine how many times I tried to capture a cheetah chirping, I mostly pressed the shutter release too late. They do it very fast and this was more like a lucky shot but I'm glad to have it ^.^

It may be that it's a lucky shot, but you must have worked hard to get it! It's a wonderful picture and you did an awesome job catching this when it goes by so fast~ :D

I don't see it as hard work because it's a lot of fun ^^ I'm just a photography beginner so I'm not very good at pressing the shutter at the right time yet.

It's never hard work when you enjoy it~
