A cheetah has its photograph taken at the Smithsonian's National Zoo in Washington September 30, 2013. Some popular tourist spots in the nation's capital would probably close if a U.S. government shutdown occurs, including the FDR Memorial, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Library of Congress, the Lincoln Memorial, the National Archives, the National Zoo and all Smithsonian Museums.
