Against the law of nature?

Photographer Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenya's Masai Mara in October last year, said he was astounded by what he saw:

"These three brothers (cheetahs) have been living together since they left their mother at about 18 months old,' he said. 'On the morning we saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking quickly but stopping sometimes to play together. 'At one point, they met a group of impala who ran away. But one youngster was not quick enough and the brothers caught it easily'."

and then they just walked away without hurting him!

    actually, The Daily Mail did not report the full story... the young impala was eaten in the end :(

    Highly possible that the young impala was finally eaten by the cheetahs as nature intended, but can we be sure the picture showed the same 3 cheetahs and the impala?
