Namibia’s Cheetah Man on TV

Anyone in the UK who was interested in the Okonjima update we posted back in December will almost certainly want to see the Cheetah Man progam tonight at 8pm on Five.

The program tells the remarkable story of Olivier Houalet who has worked for the last four years with 4 orphaned cheetahs at Namibia’s Amani Lodge, and has prepared them to be rereleased into the wild by acting as their surrogae mother. I was at Amani myself a few years ago and saw Olivier’s amazing talents for myself, and I am sure that this will make fascinating TV.

the African Cheetah Man on tv would be really fascinating. The orphans are surely going to miss him.
