The cheetahs, raised by people and housed on the base to keep different creatures off the runway, are a piece of a natural security program. Investigating their new surroundings, the two guys on Tuesday entered a hangar on the Makhado Air Force Base, where a couple officers were assembled.

The predators were recently acquainted at the base to control wildlife posing a hazard by remaining on the runway or different ranges where flying machine moved, corporate staff services director brigadier general Marthie Visser said.

The cheetahs, named Wim and Tobie, were born in captivity and discharged at the base a month ago, as indicated by the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Center site. The creatures were shooed away, yet as they stalked off, a warrant officer attempted to take their photo. They started to growl. As the warrant officer turned to escape, they jumped. The lady was treated for minor wounds on her shoulders and the back of her head.

The cheetahs, who were sent two weeks ago, will keep their home on the base, and the air force will do more to teach the officers who share the base to the world's fastest land creatures.

The base in northern South Africa is encompassed by nature reserves, and creatures some of the time slip onto the base, Visser said. In a system that started in the 1990s, the cheetahs are chosen from a nearby endangered animal groups breeding project to chase creatures like warthogs, hares and birds that pose hazards to flight security. The spotted, slender cats can freely roam.

After they finish their tour of duty of two years, they are come back to breeding projects. This is not the first run through creatures have been utilised as a part of important operations. In Mozambique, rats were utilised to sniff out undetonated land mines left over from a civil war.

Prior this year, the U.S. military subsidised a program in South Africa that concentrated on elephants' sense of smell, wanting to adjust it to electronic sensors.
