Dear all,
After a week of long searching finally the news came ''we of little Duma he is a life''!
The rangers rush up and look for it in the long grass with help if guides and a few brave guest and at last they caught it.
Although every body was sad to see the little Duma without the mama but we are all please the little baby have live for almost a week without food or mama protection and it is looking healthy.
I will update you if we have found a home for it or she will be in the maasai mara?

HI Jackson
What great news about the little one - she must be a real fighter to have lasted so long without her mother.
Could LEWA conservancy help with the cub, as they were instrumental in the raising and release of Sambu and Toki the orphaned cheetah cubs that Simon King helped with?
I wish her all the best for the future and congratulate all of those involved in her rescue.
Wonderful news!! Thank you Jackson for letting us know the little one has been found alive and am praying she'll be OK now after so long without food. Can I be her surrogate aunt??
Hey Jackson Great news hearing about the safety of the young cheetah :) She must of been a little toughie to survive a week with food or her mother. Good luck in finding her a great home to live in. Also well done to all the people involved in her finding. I hope more good news follows :) Danny
Hey Jackson...that is such great news...I am so delighted....Miracles do happen and she surely is a little miracle...I wish her well for the rest of her life and I hope she finds a good home and has a happy existance.....Well done to all who found her.

That is just great news although I still feel so sad about the rest of the little one's family. Its no wonder we love these cheetahs so much, they just have the hardest time and I really feel for them but they are such fantastic hunters and mothers. I wish this toto all the very best for its future and I would be more than happy for it to come and live with me if you're looking for a home :-)
Loving the updates Jackson - thank you so much x
Hello Jackson.
That's great news.
Given the fact that the no-interference rule applies when suffering is caused by other animals, can you explain why the rangers decided to intervene in this case?
Looking forward to more updates.
Asante sana.
Xavier, I wondered the same thing myself. I'm not sure I agree with the no-interference rule when its cheetahs given they are an endangered species but regardless of my personal opinion, I did wonder why it was okay for them to interfere with the cub but couldn't interfere to save the other cubs and indeed the mother. Maybe Jackson can explain this.
I would also add though that I am very glad they are helping the cub - we need to do all we can to save this beautiful animal from extinction.
Hey Jackson.
After posting on here and the BigCatFanz site... which was started after the end of Big Cat Live to enable us all to keep chatting about our favourite cats... about this little cub and what a miracle it is that she survived, we thought that Miracle would be an appropriate and delightful name for her. If it is possible for her to be called Miracle what is the equivalent in Swahili?

Maybe she's already been named Yatima? - Swahili for "orphan".
Great news Jackson; thanks for telling us!! She is absolutely lovely.
Could she be the mate Simon King's friend Toki was looking for???!
I am so pleased to hear the news !

This is really good news. I am so glad that the rangers have decided to help this gorgeous little cub out!
I so wish I could raise her-what I would give to be able to give her a cuddle!
Excellent job! at least one cub is saved. It is grateful to know that there was still time to spare one cheetah's life (there are so few of them in the Mara...).
Hope they can work it out to find a spare home for Yatima.
Speaking of cheetahs, any news from Shakira and the cubs Moja, Bili and Tatu?

Hi Mama Duma
Yatima is a sweet name but orphan is so sad. As far as I can make out Muujiza is swahili for Miracle and I don't know about you but Miracle is a much kinder, sweeter name than orphan, don't you think?
