Honey obliged, presenting us with four cubs that were about five-month-old when we first met them. The year's abundant migration proved both a bonus and a curse for cheetahs. Hunting hotspots attract all the Mara's predators and Honey's search for safe hunting opportunities continually put her on a direct collision course with her enemies. With such a big family to look after, things looked a little shaky. Sure enough, one of cubs was discovered dead. Hyenas would have eaten the cub so it looked like lions may have attacked in order to rid the area of competition.
