What are some of the dangers of a cheetah?

Answer 1

cheetahs face people
Even as one of the top predators in Africa, cheetahs are considerably weak and vulnerable to many life-threatening situations on a daily basis. A cheetah must hunt prey animals that are small (if the target is too large it could cause fatal harm to the cheetah via powerful kicks or trampling), and their favored prey are usually very fast. Many hunts end in failure and waste precious energy, which is a danger in itself for a feline that relies solely on incredible and tasking bursts of speed to survive.

Lions will kill cheetahs if given the chance, because they perceive other predatory animals as competition. Hyenas and leopards are larger and more powerful than cheetahs and will catch and eat them if given the chance. And with dwindling territories and the frustration of missed meals on the plains, cheetahs can also be endangered by native people if the cheetahs stalk or kill domestic cattle and goats.

Even as the fastest land animal in the world and a top predator, cheetahs rank very low in the African hierarchy--and they know it.

Cheetah's are carnivores who feed on herbivores like Gazelles, wildebeest etc. They are not known to attack or kill humans but they can be dangerous if we get too close to them. by instinct they might attack us esp female Cheetah's that are rearing pups. They might attack us to protect their young ones.

Answer 3

Adult Cheetah's have no natural enemies or predators. They are too fast to be caught by any other animal. However, the youngsters are vulnerable to animals like lions and hyenas.

Apart from this, humans are the biggest threat to cheetahs. Humans have hunted them for centuries almost wiping them out in Asia and driving them to low numbers in Africa.
