The difference between the
cheetahs
A “king” cheetah has at
least three long stripes
at the back.
On a cheetah’s body
there’s just spots .
How is a “king” cheetah cub born
Cheetahs who are normalcolored, but have the king
cheetah gene, can produce king
cheetah cubs, because parents
who carry both the normalcolored gene and the king gene
can give either to their babies.
The king gene is recessive, or
hidden, so the offspring must
receive it from both parents in
order to be king cheetahs.
