Usain Bolt travels to Africa to support charity.

Jamaican world record holder Usain Bolt has taken time away from the track to work with some charities in Africa. The 100m and 200m world record holder decided to adopt a young Cheetah, named Lightning Bolt, as a way to support the conservation efforts for wildlife in Africa. Below is a great video showing Bolt in Africa and meeting up with the Cheetah.
