Best Friends With A Purpose: Cheetah Has A 'Therapy Dog' Companion At The Turtle Back Zoo

There's an unusual pairing at the Turtle Back Zoo in New Jersey: A cheetah and a domestic animal. They have bonded over their love of play and more. CBS2's Meg Baker reports.

Cheetahs are just so nervous and jittery. That's so cute they have dogs.

[@Jack-cg8zd]

everybody loved that

[@davidng2336]

I saw this last year, and I’m in awe. Hope to see them again soon!

[@nick92065]

We just saw them yesterday. It was so cute.

[@laslunas2561]

We literally have a bigger population of runnaway parrots where I live, than cheetahs in Africa....

LA?

[@sarahmoore6612]

Beautiful sight, the cheetahs with their dog companions. Wonderful idea.

[@trefens5635]

I wish we in Africa were as stingy with our animals as china is with pandas. So many zoos in other continents wouldn't plunder our natural riches 😢

Does this mean that Cat people need Dog people?! 😂😆😡🐾🐾💞

[@QKioumehr]

If you think about a little deeper, wouldn’t it be the other way around? 😂 Btw I don’t have a dog or a cat, I’m just pointing out your flawed logic lol.

Broo i went to that zoo before

[@trumanhw]

big cats (if raised by & acclimated to people) bond to us far more than small cats ever do

[@camilavesia5704]

I like cheetahs

[@3xoticG4m3r]

Cheetahs are the pandas of the cat family. They are so deep in F Tier

[@scoobydoo7275]

S++ tier***

[@Pihsrosnec]

they're not quite that bad, they're just overshadowed by their more successful cousins. I could see cheetahs becoming an invasive species under the right circumstances, pandas are pretty much geographically locked due to their diet and behaviour. Plus they live in one of the harshest and most difficult environments on the planet, they can't be that bad if they're competing with top tiers. I'd say they're C or at the very least D tier, rather than basically destined for extinction like pandas are.

[@littleaqua32]

Not on purpose, Cheetahs get bodied by every animal in the wild when they’re trying to survive. Pandas are contributing to their own extinction on purpose 💀

[@analyticalperson6648]

@@littleaqua32Why? What do pandas do? 🤣

[@littleaqua32]

@@analyticalperson6648 it’s not what they’re doing but what they’re not doing that’s the problem

[@pokemata1035]

This is adorable but it is also a testament to how bad cheetahs are at being cats they may be adorable but they CANNOT cat I swear they gonna go extinct soon.

[@xr-ut3jn]

I know I'm late but cheetahs really got flipped off by nature
