I loved little Toto! Such a cute little angel. RIP to him and his mother, Honey.
omg that little chirp..its so cute!
Kelly Randall yes!!!
I would break the rule and interfere in a split of a second to save that little precious!!!
Miss that little soul... ❤️
first of all, thanks to people who made this video..
2ndly, the cheetah baby is wonderful and amazing, it uses bird sound to call mum.. instead of cheetah's adult sound.. this is amazing and its contributed to survival
Glad the little guy came out
Ok.
That sucks.
probably a muslim to you love death eh
+mike pearson (atrocity) WHATYOUR SAYING IM A MUSLIM IF YOUR INSSALTING MUSLIMS YOUR GETTING IT
little kitten, with the fur of a honey badger, and a chirb like baby chicken.
it's so cute.... I can tell why the man was contemplating breaking the code.
Cheetahs are the most wonderful creatures !
And this video is breathtaking !
I value a baby cheetah's life at least 60% more than I value a stranger's life. Too much aww.
lil toto made it
We are part of nature, don't think we're above it or something separate. Man can decide if they want to save a cheetah cub from baboons just as much as any animal can choose to save another.
+ikilledmacdre We are above nature, because we are past the survival of the fittest phase, we are past the natural selection phase. If those cameramen decided to save the Cheetah kitten (if it did get killed) then they'd have to feed the baboons, because we interfered with them.
+Ryder Washington That is absolute nonsense. Man is FAR from being above nature and past the survival of the fittest and natural selection phases of life. In fact, you can never surpass such things because everyday is a new day in the jungle, be it concrete or wood. That cub wouldn't have fed even a baby baboon let alone a adult, so stepping in to help a species on the edge of extinction, who doesn't have many off spring to start with, wouldn't have hurt anything in the natural process of things.
william delmer We actually are past survival of the fittest, and natural selection. How? Well, in order for nature to evolve us people have to die in a huge number, that's how evolution works we have to die to evolve. Lately we aren't anywhere near dying, the human population is increasing VERY rapidly.
+ikilledmacdre if its a sentinel being then its life has as much value as my own
+Ryder Washington We Can Interfere The Baboons Can Find Another Meal Its 1 Baboon Saving a 2-4 Month Old Cheetah Cub.
It Still Can Live To Its Full Potential.
we are on the same planet. its just like saving a human
I had to force myself not to cry at the end of this video.
I think I would have taken little Toto home... too cute to leave there.
Same
Zadoch Priest What about his mum?
Mum too... need a big kitty litter though... lol
I like little Toto and I'm so glad he mad it alive
Thanks,
You're quite the intellectual for 15 yrs old. You could teach a few adults a lesson in compassion...
YAY! THE MOM FOUND HIM AND SAVED HIM! I WAS CRYING ALOT ;~;
Awwwwwww that was so cute!!!
Cheetah cub is so cute
"Thirty years in the bush in Africa... Whew... I'm beginning to lose my nerve" - This gave me a good chuckle indeed.
Its amazing how many people comment from a place of emotion instead of a place of knowledge and reason. Helping the baby cheetah hurts the baboons. Just like helping whatever animal the Cheetah is hunting to feed her cub hurts them. All are predators with instincts to hunt and kill for food. To suppress those instincts is just as bad as killing them, sometimes worse. I swear people have absolutely lost the ability to see past their own emotions.
Michael Capanelli Good post !
Michael Capanelli But Cheetahs are going extinct and if they go out that'll seriously harm the rest of the environment.
Michael Capanelli that would be true if these were two species that were on equal footing population wise, however they are not, it would not have been ecologically damaging for him to drive off a baboon from one endangered cub, and definitely no where near to equaling out the amount of damage we humans do to the ecosystem by killing them ourselves.
Michael Capanelli Isn't that the whole point? The presenter was in a battle of emotion over logic. Logic and emotion are both important parts of being human and far from being mutually exclusive they can be very complimentary if one gets the balance right.
Having strong emotional bonds within our own social groups and feeling a need to protect those in our social group who are most vulnerable; this is perfectly human and without it we would probably be extinct, and would certainly not be living in such an evolved society which allows this guy to fly to the other side of the world, drive a jeep and film animals.
Switching this in-built emotional response off is something that most of us cannot do, but I hear serial killers are quite good at it.
Point is, the wider logical picture goes out of the window in such circumstances.
Rip toetoe the cute cheetah cub
lol the cheetah sounds like a little bird
Aww the little cheetah cubs fro was just sticking up lol.
Damn everyone on woldstar was dyin to see what happen to lil toto! LOL the suspense is strong!
I am in tears I was so scared for little ToTo and I guess I am crying out of joy.
such an absolutely beautiful animal
Too cute to not save.
WOW! THAT was INCREDIBLE!
I really like this guy.
I am wondering if he could have lived with himself after watching that rare cheetah cub being killed by a baboon, the numbers of which are in no way threatened................ Man has interfered so much for the bad, maybe it's time to interfere for the good.
Gracyn Hoover lol, then you should probably also kill Lions (who kill them way more) Leopards, Hyenas, Wild Dogs, Elephants, Rhnos, Crocodiles, Hippos, Giraffes, Wildebeest, Zebra and humans too! :)
Gracyn Hoover bit too far.......
colbol18 it is not good or bad I am considering, it is survival of the species, cheetah v baboon. I am looking at the bigger picture.
ali xena I understand now. You argue that saving the cheetah is justifiable because the species is on the verge of extinction. Even though it is tempting to justify your bias by looking at the "bigger picture", you cannot forget that these are two individuals with just as much of a right to life as any living thing. How can you call interfering for the benefit of the cheetah and the expense of the baboon the "good" thing to do? If anything, I would call that favoritism. Reverse the situation and ask yourself if you think that saving a baby baboon from becoming a cheetah's meal would be the "good" thing to do, or would it be favoring one individual over another based on which species they belong to?
colbol18 *sigh I was going to add in my previous comment back to you that if the baboons were nearing extinction and the cheetahs were in high numbers in the wild then leaving this baboon to kill this cheetah cub would be reasonable, as that would just be leaving nature to do it's thing and we shouldn't interfere. If you want to call my view of trying to save a species from extinction as "favoritism" then yeah, I am showing favoritism.
ps, I have never said that anything is the "good" or the "bad" thing to do, they are your words. I am talking about, and please read this carefully now, the good of the SPECIES.
IM SO HAPPY TODO DIDNT DIE
KleenUp Crew *actually its toto.
I glad baby cheetah is safe and sound
Baboons never harm cheetahs, this guy got worried for nothing.
The cheetah cub is so cute
Cute Toto
i agree with you sir... your a kind-hearted person. that rule must be change or revise somehow...
GOD U HAVE MERCY ON EVERYTHING I LOVE UU!!
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CREATURES ON EARTH
totally agree with you there... well said.
Tito made it haha he's alive
Toto died later on tho. R.I.P Toto
@DLA 92 yeah you and me both. If he made it it would have been nice. Kiki found him, but the buffalo killed him. Kiki found her cub squashed like a pancake. 😭
@DLA 92 you might be right. Kiki was the 1st to come to my mind
Great documentary, so glad he got away.
tears to my eyes💀
watching the part 1 of this video was emotionally stressful, glad it worked out for that beautiful ball of chirping fluff... must really be a challenge to try and let nature run its course! Complicated concept.
awwwwwww cub sounds like a bird lol
aww am happy the cub did not die :D
sucha happy ending
Ah little Toto is so so gorgeous a little beauty gorgeous cats
The open savannah space is no good hiding space, whether for a young antelope, small kitten or even a young lion.
Anyone who wonders why they can't interfere clearly has never studied biology or ecology. As painful as it is they can't intervene in scenarios like this. It's hard to swallow but there's a reason why they can't
There are actually two different approaches within the "biologist community". The ones who believe any interference with wild animals is wrong and endagers them, and the ones who believe that you need to approach/communicate/interfere to get a better understanding.
I think mother produces sounds of alarm that are processed instintively by the cubs and genetically they know what about to do in each sound.
2:04 "You do not interfere." -Steve Irwen helped baby sea turtles make it safely to the ocean at one point. :) Guys who do help out the animals make me smile..
this show is awesome!
I got so choked up watching this again. I watched this show faithfully the entire time it was on and I remember this episode vividly. All I could think was that if the baboons caught him, it would have stuck with me for a long time and would've broken my heart. To see the anguish on Jonathan's face as he watched it play out, was tough to see. And when Honey finally found Toto and Jonathan said he came close to intervening, I believed wholeheartedly that he would have. Such a great show..🤍
I almost cried
Great so see such passion
Los chitas son muy hermosos los amo
that is so cute !
I'm so glad that tiny little cute cheetahs was safe if it died I would cry
lol cheetah cubs roar like a bird TWEET TWEET its so cute LOL XP!
I CRIED 5 LITRES OF TREAS IM SO HAPPY MAY TOTO HAVE PEACE ON HIS LIFE
I totally agree
awww so cute mommy cheers saves her baby awww
LOL! thats what a baby cheetah sounds like? sounds like a little sparrow.
Same for you mate
Cheetah! My favorite animal
we must intervene for just 5 years to help the cheetahs , i mean to save cheetah from other predators until there are enough cheetahs so that they dont extinct. JUST 5 YEARS
Yay toe toe my heart was racing
Cheetah's are considered a vulnerable species, which is one step up from endangered. While they're populations could certainly be stronger they aren't anywhere near extinction.
This is what evolution is all about, the smarter, stronger, and the luckier are the ones that survive and pass on their genes.
Prove it, oh no capital after the comma? He learns from his mistakes, woo.
yay! toto lived!!!!
Well that was close!
I was just watching this on TV when the episode ended just before this scene. How annoying. So I logged into youtube to see what happened. Cutest cub.
Aww I remember Toto!:')
Wow that baby cheetah, what's his name? Toto, he's so adorable.
"can i live with that?", the answer is absolutely, yes. there are plenty of baboons and only a few cheetahs. step in and help the cub, nothing to think about.
thank god
Oh no, he nearly violated the Prime Directive!
I would have interfered and saved the cub if needed!
It's mainly the decline of habitat and poaching that has caused Cheetah numbers to drop. I understand what you're saying, but it wouldn't be fair to intervene as it could scare off the mother. The baboon could have even called to the others in alarm, causing the whole group to surround little Toto. It's very harsh, but you could be causing more damage without realising if you stepped in during such a moment. We simply need to conserve land sand deter poachers.
You're right...
Poor baboon, he just barely missed lunch. :( Oh well, that's how it is in nature sometimes.
CHEETAHS are very unique
I love cheetahs
Adorable😸😸😸
thats cute..
Great essay on human behavior.
baby just about got his ass chomped, i wonder if the mother would have exacted her revenge on the baboon.
Take it easy, pally.
i have rescued a few birds in my time 4 exsample i went out of my way to nurse a bird back to health when it got clipped by a car. I really think i made a difference that day and gave a little back to nature that were all guilty of destroying
YAY IT DODNT DIE!
that cheetah sounds like a cat.
omg! i was so scared tht toto was gone :(
I would have. Baby Cheetahs are cute!!
you scared me so so so much
Ok well I saw the first part of the vid I am glad he is safe. :DDDD
I was crying my eyes out it was so upsetting and sad 😥
He lived did u see part 2?
@KaiDune LOL you legend.
hooray toto survives
Surely the baby cheetah would have won the fight.
you have a point
Predators often mistake baby cheetahs for Ratels(Honey Badgers) and don't get to close.
