Is it Saturday…?

A young cheetah cub “explores” the stomach of the impala it’s mother has killed and gutted. The carcass was dragged a good 15 feet from the stomach. While carnivores eat most internal organs, they do not eat the stomach as it is high in grass content, which carnivores do not digest. This little guy was clearly exploring, poking it with his nose and nibbling around it before turning up his nose and heading back to the prime rib. Good decision.

Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian peeps! I am thankful for all those non-human creatures that inhabit our planet and pose for my pictures. Friendly followers: blessings of abundance from up here in the north.
