[FEL-L] Cheetahs

[Loretta aol]

I just checked out this site & I am shocked.  Apparently there is a $1500 
tariff for hunting a cheetah, they cannot be brought into the US and other 
countries and the season is all year long!  I can certainly understand the 
killing of nuisance animals but this is crazy, high population or otherwise.
