I learnt from you also.

Man trained Cheetahs for hunting since 3000 BC.

What is full meaning BC?

Before Christ
It is an abbreviation for “Anno Domini,” which is a Latin phrase meaning “in the year of our Lord,” referring to the year of Christ's birth. BC means before Christ. So at the time of this writing, 2011 AD is intended to signify that it has been 2,011 years since Christ was born.
