Photographer Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenyas Masai Mara in October last year, said he was astounded by what he saw: These three brothers (cheetahs) have been living together since they left their mother at about 18 months old, he said.<o></o>
On the morning we saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking quickly but stopping sometimes to play together.<o></o>
At one point, they met a group of impala who ran away. But one youngster was not quick enough and the brothers caught it easily.<o></o>
These extraordinary scenes followed.
and then they just walked away without hurting him.
