Cheetahs Kill White-Tailed Deer At National Zoo

Two cheetahs at the Smithsonian's National Zoo have met with some unexpected prey. The result was predictable.

Zoo officials say a white-tailed deer was killed by the cheetahs after it apparently jumped into their enclosure on Friday. A spokeswoman calls it "a normal and expected reaction" by the carnivorous big cats.

The zoo says a zookeeper heard noises from the cheetah pen shortly before noon and found the deer carcass next the cheetah siblings, named Carmelita and Justin.

  2. 2:41, You took the time to type that? Wow. But I guess on the other hand I took the time to type this. But I'm saying a dead animal is not a Holiday treat. For you to come up with this comment as the first thought that you had is sad.
