The King Cheetah has a recessive fur pattern mutation (racing stripes and mohawk down the back). First discovered in Zimbabwe in 1926, this very rare animal has been seen in the wild only 6 times.
About 10K years ago, the population of cheetahs plummeted, perhaps to a single pregnant female worldwide. Modern cheetahs are so genetically similar as to be virtual clones, making this novel coat pattern all the more interesting.
