Lions, leopards, hyenas, packs of wild African dogs, baboons, etc. will often kill cheetah cubs. However, adult cheetahs rarely have problems except for having their kills stolen. Kills made by cheetahs are stolen from them in as many as 50% of the cases.

Cheetahs rarely would have an opportunity to steal food as they are the smallest apex predator in their range.

Why are cheetahs scared of hyenas?

I don't think they are "friends" per se, but they can co-exist and probably do so for the benefit of survival (through hunting). They are not friends, but enemies. Lions will kill cheetah cubs if they can find them, and even adult cheetahs that are sick or lame and cannot outrun the lion. Cheetahs have been known to kill unguarded lion cubs on rare occasions. Lions will also drive cheetahs from their kills.


How do cheetahs sneak up on their prey?

No, they normally hide from a distance like about 10 meters then run its prey down.
