This image captures a single adult cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) resting in a grassy habitat, observed within Kristiansand Dyrepark in Kristiansand, Norway. The cheetah is positioned in the lower-mid section of the frame, lying on its stomach with its body extended towards the right and its head turned in profile towards the left. Its fur exhibits a tawny-to-golden base color patterned with distinct solid black spots, and prominent black tear streaks are visible on its face, extending from the inner corner of its eyes. The animal is situated within an environment primarily composed of tall, lush green grass. Scattered throughout the grass, particularly in the upper half of the frame, are reddish-brown flowering or seeding plant stalks and small yellow wildflowers. In the lower left foreground, a cluster of green leafy vegetation with thin, dark stems is present. The scene is illuminated by bright natural sunlight, indicating clear weather conditions. No human presence or specific interactions are depicted.
