Vidogo

[SnowyCheetah]

Name means "Tiny" in Swahili.

Vidogo is a male cheetah cub who is mature for his age of 3-4 months. Having been abandoned by his parents as a cub, he learned to fend for himself, more or less, and live on scraps left by other predators. He has four large scars on the left side of his back, received from a lion who didn't appreciate his scrounging for scraps before he was through eating his own fill of his kill. He has white fur on his chin, underbelly, toes and tailtip. Due to malnourishment in his early days he is permanently weak, having only about 3/4 of the strength of a normal cheetah of equivalent age and size. He can live normally, but he gets tired and exhausted more easily than normal.
