Cheetah cubs venture outside
On Feb. 12, the Smithsonian National Zoological Park’s cheetah cubs went outside for the first time. Zazi, the mother of the female and foster-mother of the male, kept a watchful eye over the cubs as they played. The cubs reside at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Front Royal, Va.
