      I would say the woman in that advert is the lucky one…to have the opportunity of having “Lucky” in her life. How’s the baboon baby in the beginning? Beautiful animals and of course “Lucky” is just amazing. Love it, love it, looovvve it.

      I also loved this ad, however I was a bit peeved to find out that it is not a true story, and in fact the agency that made the advert had to search long and hard to find a cheetah with a leg missing.
      I feel “cheated”

      Alice, not sure where you got your info from but it is a true story. See below. The sanctuary is based in Windhoek, Namibia.

      “Marlice van Vuuren runs a wildlife sanctuary called N/a’ankuse, largely committed to relocating problem animals as an alternative to farmers shooting them. In cases of injured animals, she rehabilitates them and gives them a life on her farm. The female cheetah in question had lost her hind leg in a farmer’s gin trap. Since she would never return to the wild, Marlice committed herself to rehabilitating her as best she could.

      “Her tenderness and care for the animals was inspiring to watch and she opened her arms to this project. Marlice uses many unconventional ideas to strengthen the cheetah’s remaining hind leg: throwing food, running with her dogs, playing with tennis balls and feather dusters, even using her son’s remote control car. Marlice named the cheetah Lucky because she was lucky to be alive. In a sense, we were lucky too, as I never expected to land upon such a beautiful true story that lined up with an agency’s dreamed-up idea,”
