Ecological Importance!?

You need to think about what roles these animals play in the ecosystem...are they predators that help control the population of prey animals...are they prey animals that feed predators, etc., etc. You will probably not find a site that is point blank going to say " the cheetah is important to ecology because......" You need to do some research on your own and come up with why they are important due to thier behaviors, feeding habits, breeding behavior, etc.
