Annie, a cheetah, is on the loose in southern British Columbia right by the US border. Be warned.

Keep your kids inside. And your pets. And hope that they find her before she starves or hurts somebody. She's supposed to be tame.

Hate it when people think that they can have wildlife as pets.

Hope she is recovered unharmed. Jerks.
