I spend some quality time with Gabriel, The Cheetah. He really loves the visits and I show his behavior before, during, and after our encounters.

Cheetahs roll around on their backs for various reasons. Gabriel rolls and rubs the ground when I approach him. It is his way of telling me he is very happy to see me. He often rolls around and then looks to see if I am watching. Once that is done, he typically gets up for a physical interactive visit with me.

So, I filmed some clips of us during my visits on the ground in mostly selfie view to show what he does. Our encounter and his behaviors are quite predictable and how I can predict what he'll do. It normally begins is affectionate purring and grooming and ends with a cat play fight session. He loves to play fight and practice his predatory skills on my arm and hands. It is actually a bit scary for me as I only get to visit Gabriel twice a year due to a career that supports my project. But, he loves it so much that I accept the risks and allow the play bite sessions. I think in the end, it strengthens our bonds rather than risks it.

No on one else in the Universe enriches Gabriel as I can and why we are such good friends. He is alone in that wild camp and cannot have many visits from others as Gabriel has a history of some naughtyness and slapping so off limits except minor encounters. He is very dominant and can express that dominance on people and other cheetahs and why. I love him so take all the risks for him to enrich his life when I can.

Thanks for watching! Enjoy!
