Mbile Climbs a Tall Tree

Cheetahs love to sit high up on termite mounds and watch the other animals on the wide plains of the Masai Mara. But out in the grasslands the cheetah cubs can't see a thing as their legs are too short and the grass is too tall. Mbile, the cheekiest cub, finds it really frustrating not being big enough - but he has a bright idea.

When the family aren't looking, he climbs to the top of the tallest tree and looks out over the whole Masai Mara. The view is wonderful and Mbile is distracted as his mother and brothers walk away into the long grass.

When he realises they've gone, Mbile discovers that climbing up a tree is the easy part.
