able to discover this by looking at mitochondrial DNA as well as hypervariable nminisatellite loci in South African and East African cheetahs (Menotti-Raymond and O’Brien‚ 1992). By looking at these‚ they were able to tell that the Pleistocene bottleneck affected cheetahs and decreased cheetah’s variation of alleles (Menotti-Raymond and O’Brien‚ 1992). Zoos have also had trouble breeding cheetahs in captivity due to such low variations and trying to make sure that inbreeding does not happen (Menotti-Raymond
