NATURE: "THE CHEETAH CHILDREN"
PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET
Two weeks ago, Nature told the story of a man who raised some orphaned otters and released them successfully back into the wild. Tonight, there’s a similar theme, as a nature photographer develops an unexpected and unusual relationship with some newborn cheetah cubs, or kittens, or Cheetos, or whatever tiny cheetahs are called. The mom is still around, too, which allows for some “up close and personal” footage of the way a cheetah family relates, plays, hunts, and sleeps. But you won’t see them doing any victory dances, though, because cheetahs never win. For a full review, see Alex Strachan's TV That Matters. Check local listings.
