Cheetahs Get Workout At Horse Racing Track

Cheetahs need to run. Kito and Kiburi, residents at the Houston Zoo, get to stretch their legs at a race track. (BuzzFeed)

YouTube Description:

The Houston Zoo cheetahs enjoy stretching their legs out while running at the Sam Houston Race Park. Running is a natural behavior for cheetahs in the wild, so the staff at the Houston Zoo want to promote this behavior by encouraging them to run - this is called "enrichment."For more on animal enrichment and the Houston Zoo, visit http://www.houstonzoo.org.
