Before watching "Man, Cheetah, Wild", I was skeptical of what Kim's purpose was for his up close and personal interaction with cheetahs. I wondered if he was trying to sensationalize and capitalize on the endeavor, strictly for fame and gain.
After viewing, I was convinced that his goals were sincere in that he wanted to present as much information as he could about cheetahs, in addition to providing a unique experience for viewers. I would usually be concerned with close human interaction and the effects that might have on wild animals. In this case, Kim demonstrated that enough effort was taken so the cheetahs only became used to his presence, and not humans in general, and that he truly cares about their well being.
I was impressed with Kim's skills in judging animal behavior and this program certainly gave an interesting new perspective into the lives of wild cheetahs. On these merits, I would highly recommend this film to those interested in learning more about cheetahs and African wildlife in general.
