Humans, lions, hyenas and African wild dogs all pose a threat to cheetahs. Their biggest threat is poachers who will skin them (after being shot) for their beautiful fur which is surprisingly rough.

Cheetah's mate and reproduce all year round. They don't have any mating season as such. After a gestation period of around 90 to 98 days, a female give birth to a litter of upto 9 cubs. But, the average litter size is between 3 to 5 cubs. The cubs weigh an average of 150 to 300 grams at birth and stay with the mother for approximately 2 years. During this period, the mother protects her cubs and feeds them.

Adult cheetahs are apex predators and are rarely taken by other animals. However, lions, hyenas, leopards and packs of African wild dogs will kill and eat cheetah cubs.
