Are Cheetah cubs born with red eyes?

Cheetah cubs are indeed born with blue eyes, just like human infants. As they grow older, the pigment melanin accumulates in their irises, gradually changing their eye color to a golden yellow or amber hue.

This transformation typically occurs at around 9 months to 18 months of age and is part of the cubs' natural development toward adulthood. Blue eyes in adult cheetahs are rare and usually a genetic aberration
