Unlike females, who remain mostly nomadic, male cheetahs form coalitions to establish and defend territories. These coalitions form in two primary ways: through birth, where brothers stay together after leaving their mother, or through unrelated males of similar age joining forces shortly after independence. This pattern mirrors how lions form coalitions, though in both species, brotherhood-based groups tend to be more common. Interestingly, the largest cheetah coalitions often consist of a mix of related and unrelated males who have chosen to band together.
