It shows a cheetah being killed by a lioness, not for the squeamish!

Ken: can't watch it ... squeamish, it will be!

Looked like some sort of a building in the background and the other cheetah seems to have a collar on. Was this some kind of gruesome rehab lesson to teach them to fear lions before being released to the wild? Somehow it all looked quite unnatural, cheetahs would normally run off much faster. Tell me I'm wrong.

Looks like a lodge and the survivor is definitely collared. Also the game drive vehicle has a canopy.

It looks like it was filmed on a landscaped property with a large, landscaped lawn. To me, at least, it looks like this was a forced, unnatural encounter. Truly disturbing, and should be illegal.

For Hari and everybody,

Some myths are falling down,cheetahs are not the fastest anymore.
