      Cheetahs don't really attack humans because the don't see humans as a threat and even in the game reserves, cheetah do go into the tour trucks and never attack. the bad lot are the Leopards and Lions.

    What a wonderful time with your family. My grandchildren homeschool they are about the some ages as the younger two of yours. They were very excited to be invited along on your day trip. What a beautiful way to teach children and expose them to different cultures around the world. My grandchildren we're saying thank you thank you so much. For inviting us and taking us they love the cheetah purring and seeing you petting it. Laughter that broke out seeing the ostrich eating off the kids' heads was so sweet. Thank you again

    Hollywood actress stephanie powers is the patron of the zoo. She has a home closeby. She splits her time between her home in california and Mt. Kenya. The zoo is also part of Mt. kenya safari club founded in the 1950s by American actor, William Holden, guests include Winston Churchill and Bing Crosby, Ali McGraw, author James Clavell, film producer David Lean and footballer Joe Montana have all signed the guest book amongst its former members, european aristocrats and even the Italian mafia. The history of Mt. Kenya safari club dates back to the 1930's by its first owner or discoverer Rhoda Lewinsohn who was married to a millionaire financier from New York. Those who have stayed there will understand Rhoda’s assertion to a friend in California, some 30 years after her marriage to Gabriel had been dissolved “… those were the happiest years of my life. There are no regrets.
