Kasi and Mtani celebrate one year together

Kasi, a young cheetah, arrived at Busch Gardens in 2011. He came from Jacksonville after his mother could no longer take care of him. Now he and Mtani, a young Labrador, are cute fixtures in the Cheetah Run habitat that's part of Busch Gardens' new Cheetah Hunt roller coaster experience in Tampa. In April 2012, they celebrate their first year together.
