D.C. Zoo Will Name Cheetah Cubs After Olympians, Shelter Pets Hit Capitol Hill

D.C. Zoo Plans to Christen Cheetah Cubs With Olympian Monikers
A pair of 3-month-old cheetahs recently explored their new yard at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C., where they will greet the public for the first time this weekend. The duo's debut coincides with the start of the Olympics in London, and since cheetahs are known for their amazing speed and agility, the zoo plans to name the male and female cubs after the fastest American male and female runners in the upcoming 100-meter dash. — Read it at the National Zoo
