But the most extraordinary story of the swiftest of the hunters occurred at Shifting Sands, the drifting dunes close to Olduvai Gorge, when a solitary cheetah after a short run managed to capture a baby Thomson's gazelle, while its mother was able to run away to a safe distance.

While I can't speak to the matter of the baby wildebeest, elk or muskrat, I have a pretty good idea about puppies, kittens, baby parrots and the youngsters of most every other critter we keep as pets.
Benjamin, whose head is bigger than Danny's wiggly little body, takes advantage of his size to remove himself from the puppy's reach, jumping over low baby gates into adjacent rooms or hopping into the chair in the living room that is his favorite place for sleeping (aside, of course, from my bed).
Heather refuses to be so inconvenienced, preferring instead to stay in place and discipline the little pest with the swift actions of any good dog-mother -- a low warning growl, a stop-that-now glare, or for the most serious infractions, a firm pinning of the puppy to the ground with paw or muzzle.
