Bunkie is a 6-month-old baby cheetah who lives at the zoo with his mother and siblings. He was born at the zoo along with his siblings, while his mother was born in Africa. Bunkie enjoys playing and hunting during the day and napping whenever he wants at the zoo. His mother had to come to the zoo from Africa because cheetahs were endangered in the wild due to habitat destruction and polluted water.
2. Hi,
My name is Bunkie and I’m a
baby cheetah. I live in the
zoo with my mommy and
siblings. My siblings and I
were born here at the zoo,
we’re called cubs. Mommy
was born in Africa! I don’t
really know what Africa
looks like but mommy says
It’s very hot, pretty, and
that I’d like it there.
3. I’m 6 months old and
have yellow fur with
black spots. Mommy
says when I’m older
I’ll have 2,000 of
them! My favorite
food is meat. And my
closest living relative
is the Puma.
4. Mommy says she
had to come and
live at the zoo
because she was
endangered, her
habitat was being
destroyed and her
drinking water was
polluted.
5. I love it here at the zoo, I
get to hunt and play all
morning and afternoon
and nap whenever I
want. I’ve made a lot of
friends here and
everyone is really nice
to me!
