Four villagers in north-east Kenya have chased down and captured two cheetahs which were killing their goats.

The owner of the goats told the BBC that the cheetahs had been picking off
his
animals one by one, day by day.

The men waited until the hottest part of the day before launching the
chase over
a distance of four miles (6.4km).

The cheetahs got so tired they could not run any more. The villagers captured them alive and handed them over to the Kenya Wildlife Service.
...
"I was sipping a cup of tea when I saw them killing another goat," he said, explaining that this was early in the morning.

He said he waited until several hours later when the sun was high to go after them.

"I called some youths and we ran after them," he said.

"We caught them and we brought them to the local authorities."

How they found them?
I mean, you can hunt that way in a snow, when tracks are clearly
visible. Cheetahs can blend into environment, they have camouflage just
like any other animal. They know how to hide, how those runners found
them? They can run, alright, but they are not dogs, they cannot smell.
And other animals can smell them (well, especially if they don't live
the aquatic way of life, lol).

The cheetahs have to carry their prey away. Just follow at a safe distance.

Ignoring the fact that these are descendants of the Bantu Expansion, they haven't even been there as long as the pyramids have been standing, as
the Expansion only took place like 3k years ago...

Wow. This actually proves that humans really can run... and to think, we all said that they couldn't!

Wait. No, we said that they could... and do...

Just not habitually.

The basic frame (skeleton) and body of a small bipedal dinosaur adapted
easily to the MASSIVE sauropod quadrupeds with so little change that
there are learned men who claim that they must've been rearing up on
their hind legs...

BIRDS are so much like the older AND FAR LARGER dinosaurs that they
descend from that most so-called learned men get everything backwards,
and describe the dinosaurs as bird-like.

The point is that humans evolved to walk. This was and remains applicable
to running -- the same adaptations to our form that allow us to walk all day long also allow us to run, albeit for shorter distances/time periods.

And we all knew this already.

So you have a population that hasn't been there for very long, that probably started out as distantly related to sub saharan populations, genetically, as your average European, and what they do today "Proves" what Kenyans
were doing... when? A million years? Maybe two million years ago?

Found those snorkel noses yet?

Found those snorkel noses yet?

OI, BIG NOSE !
Marc Verhaegen 2010 New Scientist 2782 p 69 Lastword

Why do humans evolve external noses that don’t seem to serve any useful purpose – our smelling sensors are inside the head. Our nose is vulnerable to damage, and the majority of primates and other mammals manage with relatively flat faces.
Traditional explanations are that the nose protects against dry air, hot air, cold air, dusty air, whatever air, but most savannah mammals have no external noses, and polar animals such as arctic foxes or hares tend to evolve shorter extremities
including flatter noses (Allen’s Rule), not larger as the Neanderthal protruding nose.

The answer isn’t so difficult if we simply consider humans like other mammals.

An external nose is seen in elephant seals, hooded seals, tapirs, elephants, swine and, among primates, in the mangrove-dwelling proboscis monkeys. Various, often mutually compatible functions, have been proposed, such as sexual display (in male hooded
and elephant seals or proboscis monkeys), manipulation of food (in elephants, tapirs and swine), a snorkel (elephants, proboscis monkeys) and as a nose-closing aid during diving (in most of these animals). These mammals spend a lot of time at the margins
of land and water. Possible functions of an external nose in creatures evolving into aquatic ones are obvious and match those listed above in many cases. They can initially act as a nose closure, a snorkel, to keep water out, to dig in wet soil for food,
and so on. Afterwards, these external noses can also become co-opted for other functions, such as sexual display (visual as well as auditory) in hooded and elephant seals and proboscis monkeys.

But what does this have to do with human evolution?

The earliest known Homo fossils outside Africa – such as those at Mojokerto in Java and Dmanisi in Georgia – are about 1.8 million years old. The easiest way for them to have spread to other continents, and to islands such as Java, is along the
coasts, and from there inland along rivers. During the glacial periods of the Pleistocene – the ice age cycles that ran from about 1.8 million to 12,000 years ago – most coasts were about 100 metres below the present-day sea level, so we don’t know
whether or when Homo populations lived there. But coasts and riversides are full of shellfish and other foods that are easily collected and digested by smart, handy and tool-using “apes”, and are rich in potential brain-boosting nutrients such as
docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

If Pleistocene Homo spread along the coasts, beachcombing, wading and diving for seafoods as Polynesian islanders still do, this could explain why Homo erectus evolved larger brains (aided by DHA) and larger noses (because of their part-time diving).
This littoral intermezzo could help to explain not only why we like to have our holidays at tropical beaches, eating shrimps and coconuts, but also why we became fat and furless bipeds with long legs, flat feet, large brains and big noses.

Why don't you go to Africa, and follow some cheetah, if you find it,
first thing in the morning? This is what hyena is doing, it is following leopard. You? Not a chance. You wouldn't find a cheetah in nature.
Animals have camouflage fur for a reason.
What people really are doing is, they are following dogs. Of course,
of they bump onto some dogs during hunt. The majority of predators hunt
at night. On African night you wouldn't be able to follow each other
around. I was in war, there wasn't electricity in the war zone. I saw
two eyes in the dark. I couldn't figure out if those two eyes are from a
cat that is half a meter away, or from a cow that is fifty meters away.
I'll lay down in some shade (moonlight shade), you will pass half a
meter from me, and you will not see me. You will not see me at all. You
will sit half a meter from me in the same shade, and you will have a
shock when I move, half a meter from you (and I say "Goodbye.", lol).
