Bursting with fascinating facts and rich, colourful photography, readers will learn everything from the way they sleep to how they hunt and raise their young. They'll also learn 'weird but true' facts like how the ancient Egyptians kept cheetahs as pets and how kids today can own cheetah-breeds as pet cats.
