2. I would welcome an opportunity to interact with one

Of course, I’ve also said that about larger, more dangerous animals as well. Friends & family can’t seem to dissuade me. I’ve held a falcon on my arm, a lion cub that took up my entire lap, and cuddled up next to a black bear. Next, I’d like to get close to a cheetah, whose personality I trust more than any other large cat.
