Cheetahs’ social life

Unlike males, females are solitary and tend to avoid each other, though some mother/daughter pairs are known. Cheetahs have a unique, well-structured social order. Females live alone except when they are having cubs.

predators. At eighteen months, the mother leaves the cubs, who then form a sibling, that will stay together for another six months. At about two years, the female siblings leave the group, and the young males remain together for life.
