Carnivous animals of the Sahara Desert include the spotted hyena, desert fox, common jackal and Libyan striped weasel.Carnivorous birds include the desert eagle and the Nubian buzzard.However, this writer saw a female cheetah and her cub in the Atlas Mountains, so the cheetah must also inhabit the Sahara Desert. Smaller carnivores like desert fox and the striped weasel mostly feed on small animals like the guinea fowl, the gerboa and the Cape hare, while larger carnivores like the spotted hyena and the common jackal feed on the barbary sheep, dama deer and dorcas gazelle.
