The young cheetahs have a silver tuft of hair called a mane over their heads and backs. They sleep a lot and drink only their mother s milk. As they grow bigger, they start walking and following their mother. They spend most of their time play- fighting which makes them strong and able to defend themselves. The mother teaches them how to hunt and kill an animal.
