    Really nice video - very worthwhile. The enclosures appear to be the grade you would see in a first rate public zoo, which is surprising for a private breeding center. I wonder if they plan to eventually open to the public?

    Here are the two highlights:
    king cheetah at 0:56-58
    marbled cat at 1:02-10
