    The cheetah's lack of genetic diversity is attributed to a severe population bottleneck that occurred ~12,000 years ago, from which the entire extant species is derived

    The lack of genetic diversity implies that the history of the cheetah population was relatively "calm" and undisturbed; in other words, there weren't crazy environmental stimuli and changes. The reason for this is based on the fact that the population had a lack of genetic diversity, as fewer genetic diversity means less of an ability to adapt to environmental stimuli/changes.
