On our very first day of safaris, we happened upon a male chetah (the only chetah we saw during our 4 day stay). He was walking around, looking for something to eat (found a nice bug,mmm) before taking a nap. At this point, he was only about 10 meters from the truck.

The color coordinate is perfect! (Kudos to Mother Nature for that, and nice catch on your part!)
