Nope I asked if the little one here is for example a jubatus jubatus (southern Africa Cheetah) or Acinonyx jubatus soemmeringii (central Africa Cheetah) so i wanted to know the Subspecies.
don't panic i looked it up in the studbooks and here's the result: Studbook index Number: 6993, that lil one here is a Female , Born 2 Jul 2009, found due it seems to be the only hand raising cub in 2009 from Cincinnat and the Name seems to be "NIA FAYE" (CIN 5 for Studbook reference)
Sadly the Studbook didn't say what kind of subspecies she is, so i would say she is a crossbreed between a central and a southern (most common subspecies in Zoos).
