cheetahs may not be easy to tree, but they are in fact closely related to cougars. it's interesting to wonder what would happen should the cheetah make contact with a cougar of the opposite sex.

if it weren't for the collar, i may even wonder how likely it would be for a cougar to maintain their spots to such an age.

what would a cougar-bobcat hybrid look like? being intermediate in size is almost guaranteed, and cheetah-like spots are a distinct possibility.
