Cheetah run is one of the many attractions at the San Diego Safari Park. This furry feline accelerates from 0 to 60 in seconds and the cats race every day at 3:30. Crowds of onlookers congregate around the run to witness this free event. The magnificent cheetah is a fearful animal, so her pal, a beautiful white dog runs the course first to make her feel comfortable. The run takes a second or two, but the memories will last for years to come. A mechanical lure incites the fast cat to pounce with her lightning quick speed as onlookers gawk. Front row viewing opportunities are available for a mere $ 6.00, so you can get in on the action without fighting the crowds. Don’t try to record the run, or you will miss the action!
