A couple of cheetahs are running wild at the Little Rock Zoo.
Starting tomorrow you can watch the fastest mammal on land sprint around the zoo's newest exhibit, the Laura P. Nichols Cheetah Outpost.
KARK 4 cameras got a sneak peek on Tuesday at the zoo's two cheetahs, Zazi, and her daughter Maggie.
They came to Little Rock from the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute.
"This is the first time the Little Rock Zoo has had cheetahs. This is a very special grand opening for us, and Saturday the public will be invited to see the exhibit for the first time," says the zoo's Susan Altrui.
The exhibit opens Saturday morning at 10:30.
