This is Ruuxa, an adorable little cheetah cub who was abandoned by her mother. Fortunately a zoo safari park in San Diego knew exactly what to do, give him a puppy friend who will be raised with the cheetah and serve as his lifelong companion.
Apparently there is good reasoning behind this unlikely friendship. Zoo experts say “As the two companions grow up together, the dog’s body language will communicate to the cheetah that there’s nothing to fear in new or public surroundings, which relaxes and calms the cheetah.”
Well, we can clearly see that this is the case with Ruuxa, he looks like he’s at ease and having lots of fun.
