Africa | Have you ever wondered why most cheetahs look so similar? It’s because they have unusually low genetic variability, especially when compared to other big cats. Besides lions, cheetahs are the only other social cats and the groups they form are called coalitions, which are typically started by brothers from the same litter. . . . . . . . #animalsofinstagram #animalplanet #animaloftheday #wild #wildlife #outdoors #animals #wildanimals #conservation #nature #animallovers #instanature #wildgeography #wildlifeonearth #africa #animalsofafrica #cheetah

:: The Family Ground Squirrel :: This California ground squirrel mom had three babies she was feeding and playing with — well, three that I could see. They usually have six or so per litter. She was nursing them while also sharing her food, mostly the wild grasses growing around these rocks.
