Cheetah Siblings

These cheetah siblings had just finished the remains of a kill. After it was gone mom and the pictured cubs moved to a new spot where the cubs groomed each other to clean up. Grooming after feeding reduces their scent which helps protect the cubs from being discovered by other predators.
