Cape Town – Guests staying at the umVangati House in the Blyde River Canyon region next to the Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga had a surprise visitor – a male cheetah that graced them with its presence, as it strolled confidently through the resort’s lounge area.
The video was taken by Jaco Geldenhuys (@jacog9), who posted it to TikTok with the caption “King of Speed”.
In the video, the cheetah enters the lounge area and takes a few confident strides around the seating area. He approaches an outdoor sitting area, where four guests are seen sitting down to have breakfast, some barely noticing the animal.
