Keepers at Africa Alive near Lowestoft say one of their newest arrivals, a cheetah called Duma, is 'settling in well'.

The two year old has moved to the Suffolk wildlife park from the Zoo de Montpellier in France.

She's been getting used to her new surroundings and a new team of keepers.

Duma joins other cheetahs being kept at the park, including demale Kilima and male Dayo.

The animals are usually found in sub-Saharan Africa, but are currently classed as vulnerable to exinction in the wild.
