The daily cheetah run is on a track just above lion camp. People who pay $40 extra get to go to a VIP viewing area and meet the cheetah up close afterwards. This area is directly behind me, which means it is across from the lion viewing windows pictured here. I presume to keep the cheetah calm during the close up time, they pull curtains over the lion glass until the cheetahs have left.
