Cheetahs, in fact, are really strong although their bodies are much leaner and slimmer than the other big cats. Here is a cheetah trying to kill a bull kudu.

Mark Dumbleton: " I found two male Cheetah drinking at the Rooiputs waterhole in the Kgalagadi mid-morning in December 2012, the hottest time of year. They looked quite active and I decided to stay with them. Plenty of new born Springbok were in the area, and I was sure they would hunt down some of these youngsters.
The Cheetah moved about 500m south of the Rooiputs waterhole, and killed a stray baby Springbok on the eastern ridge of the Nossob River bed. They began eating the baby in the shade of a tree, when a mother Springbok and her newborn wandered over the ridge towards the two feeding Cheetah.
In no time, the two Cheetah left their kill and chased the mother and her calf behind my car, catching the baby about 10m away from me. The cries from the baby Springbok sent shivers down my spine, intensifying the experience of a fragile battle for life and death. It was an incredible experience, and to be able to photograph the drama so close to me was a moment I will never forget."

Thomas Vilayan: " Flying Cheetah!
Was breathtaking to photograph this cheetah which was flying out of very tall grass to bring down the Topi, I couldn’t see anything other than the grass moving till it jumped out. "

Sachin Rai: " One more time when a sub adult spoilt the chances of a successful hunt. We saw this mother intently walking towards a herd of antelopes followed by her three subadult cubs. They walked quite a distance to cover the gap before the antelopes noticed them. But one of the subadults couldn’t contain its urge to dash towards the prey and ended up chasing the antelopes "

Zhayynn James: " Gazelle fawns are usually left to hide in the low ground cover, lying still and silent to avoid detection by predators. This cheetah was hunting a small herd of gazelle , unaware of the presence of the fawn and was mid-way through the hunt when this fawn spooked and ran. The cheetah changed tack and chased down the fawn, with little effort. This photograph was the moment when the cheetah tapped the gazelle and brought it down. Checkmate. "

Sachin Rai: " The gap between life and death! This Impala was brought down by the famous cheetah from Masai Mara called Malaika in a matter of seconds and she finished eating the entire animal with the help of three subadult cubs in less than half hour. "

It looks like the cheetah ate its kill already and was full. Look at its belly. I guess it didn't bothered about the warthogs eating its leftovers.
