    If you tweet them/ask on Facebook you're bound to get a reply, even at this time of evening. They've tweeted in the last hour so might still be online :-)

    The last time I was down there I think it was after lunchtime. I think its around 3pm to 4pm .

    When you enter fota anyway, the chettah run area where they do this is one of the first enclosures on the right, they have the times printed on signage at the front of the enclosure.

    This page says the cheetah run feed is at 4pm but I would defo confirm that when your there http://www.fotawildlife.ie/events/category/education

    Hardly, they wring the chicken's necks before stringing them up.

    would be good to see some bankers and politicians dropped into the enclosure.

    I was amazed I assumed they would feed them a bit of meat, then one of the cheetahs ripped a chicken in half and the other half went flying down the wire!,
