Some of you may find this hard to believe, and so did I!

Early this morning I awoke to hear a program on the BBC about working
animals (showbiz, circuses, etc.) and what happens to them when their
working lives were over.

I was amazed when I heard an individual on there who now has possession
of Cheetah!

That's right! Cheetah, who worked with Johnny Weismuller in the Tarzan
movies in the late 30's.

Cheetah is now 72 years old!

Here is an article I was able to find from last year:

I heard that program also. They had some guy from India that approved of
the care the person from Palm Springs was giving Cheetah. The guy from
India was promoting retirement benefits for working animals. Art Bell
type guest if you ask me.
