        Not really, tbh. Cats will sometimes form colonies given enough resources and mothers will help eachother raise young. But you’ll never see something like the group predation that lions take part in. Cats are largely more similar to the rest of the felids than they are to lions

    I mean, I like the picture, bit you could have a cat a squirrel a coyote and a horse all doing this and say all animals are the same. It’s kind of just how quadrupeds stretch.

      While true, it’s also true that cats of all sizes behave very similarly. Cheetahs are probably the least similar to the other cats.

      If you’ve had pet cats and gotten to know their behavior, it’s remarkable how familiar the behavior of big cats can be.

          This is probably just my layperson showing, but I honestly wouldn’t be all that afraid of a cheetah. If I were in that situation in any other big cat habitat I would be absolutely terrified. Smaller cats like lynx I wouldn’t really be afraid for my life but I would be fearful of attack and injury.

          Cheetah I wouldn’t really feel much fear, more just confusion about what I’m supposed to do. They really don’t have the same cat software that all the others have. Much more chill.

            Cheetahs are quite a bit more fragile since they’re optimized for speed. Any injury could hamper their ability to hunt, so as a result they’re more skittish and flighty than the other big cats. In zoos they often raise cheetahs alongside dogs, giving them a service animal of sorts so they are calmer around the weird hairless monkeys and don’t get stressed out as much.

        Yeah, I always noticed at the zoo how familiar the movement of the big cats was.

      I’m not sure it’s anatomically possible for a horse to stretch that way without injuring itself.

          I’ve seen mini horses get pretty low stretching like a cat. They seem more flexible than the full sized guys but maybe it’s cuz they’re supporting less weight.

              Yeah, these were mini horses. I think mini horses have the same proportions of big horse(just tiny) whereas ponies tend to have their own proportions that are bit different.

              The mini horses I’ve seen are flexible as hell though. Bend themselves in half to scratch an itch on flank with their teeth.
