It is very rare to see cheetah in Ndutu, especially a mother with cubs, unless you have a highly skilled guide like Bokari. We saw this family on the second day of my game drive in the Ndutu plain. After a long drive, I stopped in a good location to look for cheetah, and there they were! The best season to see cheetahs is between February and May, because the migratory herds of wildebeest and buffalo stop here to feed on the fresh grass that grows after short and long rains. All the predators—lion, cheetah, hyena and black backed jackal—are very active as they hunt, especially early morning and evening. Also, if you like birds, including water birds, Ndutu is the best at this time.
