Re: Women teasing cheetahs
Really nothing unusual here. Predatory animals like the cheetahs in question here are stalkers and as such rely and being hidden. Acknowledging them by looking at them and walking towards them even in a taunting way puts them into a defensive flight mindset i.e. takes them by surprise, I bet she's pretty safe, a lot safer than if she were riding her bike past them without stopping to acknowledge them at least. The same goes for mountain lion defense, apparently making eye contact and walking towards a stalking mountain lion will make the lion back off. I'd prefer a .357mag but in a pinch....
P.S. I'd hit it!
