User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Only humans set out to hunt snow leopards. They are apex predators so nothing hunts them for food. Wolves might if given the chance, but a snow leopard would be likely to hurt a number of them so they would be unlikely to try. Also snow leopards tend to live further up the mountains.

What do cheetahs eat in Kenya?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cheetahs use their speed and camouflage to hunt prey. Gazelle's, Impala and Springbok are the usual prey species as they are around the size that a cheetah can catch and kill.

They lie hidden in the grass and move close to its unsuspecting prey. When they are around 100 to 200 meters near the prey, they pick up a burst of speed and tackle the prey. They go for the throat thereby suffocating the prey.
