Cheetahs are actually incredibly sensitive creatures despite being relatively large cats and the fastest animal on Earth. They become so stressed out that they are unable to interact socially and become too anxious to reproduce. They require assistance because they are vanishing, and the most unlikely of animal friendships provided the answer. Hence, zoos all around the world have discovered a strategy to support the huge cats’ self-assurance and loneliness.
According to one of the Zoo managers from Ohio, US, “If you put the puppy with the cubs, then fairly quickly the cubs don’t recognise — they think it’s their brother, their sister.” “I’ve discovered that we want our cheetahs to be as confident as possible. We are aware that we are unable to offer it to them, but the dogs are able to.”The dogs not only inspire confidence but also provide solace. An assistance dog named Coby provided the kind of support you’d anticipate from a closest friend when Keyara, a cheetah, required leg surgery earlier this year.
As cheetahs require some assistance, zookeepers have been providing these creatures with their very own… emotional support dogs for years. According to Jack Grisham, vice president of animal collections at the St. Louis Zoo and administrator of the cheetah species conservation plan for North America, “it’s a love tale of one species helping another species live.”
