    Kike was notorious in Big Cat Diary for using the camera cars as 'look-out' mounds for refuge and hunting advantages, and Nigel and Simon often remarked on how fond they were that Kike felt comfortable (and was intelligent enough) to do so.

    She learned at an early age (from Amber, her mother, who also used the cars) that these guys weren't here to bother her, and so she didn't feel threatened or aggressive, hence, no attacking!

    The narrater got it all wrong! Kike just wanted to have sex in a car. Think, in a Cheetah's life

    this opportunity does not come too often. She just wanted to experience that. Too bad,

    this poor novice male could not get her signal. Otherwise for the first time we could have watched Cheetah sex on the roof of a car.

    True.Some people even walk up to them and start petting them. Not sure it's a good thing to do with all of them.

    Not really, a cheetah has a 9 times out 10 chance of failing each hunt. They probably don't attack because the car is a giant scary thing that smells funny and they have no instinct on how to deal with it. Also no interest in humans for the same reason, no instinct or teachings how. They just don't know how to hunt us. Antelope= neck, Rabbit = neck, Weird spindly legged thing that walks on two legs like no other animal= no clue.

    FYI animals will hunt people if there's nothing else.

    Why would she attack the camera man? Animals don't care about people. They have all the food they need. Beside, a cheetah wouldn't be able to take down a grown man. Cheetahs are runners, not fighters.
