Rock the Vote: Cheetah cub names have been announced!

On May 22, the National Zoo and Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute  asked the public to vote on the names of their four cheetah cubs. After five days, and more than 30,000 votes, the zoo announced the winning names!  Click here to see their names and to learn more about the cheetahs themselves.

You can also stay up to date on their growth and progress in their regular Cubdates!

And if you just can’t get enough, check out the Cheetah Cub Cam (a personal favorite of mine).

Watch the video below to see their first (adorable!) veterinary visit and to see how keepers at SCBI make sure they stay healthy.
