Cheetahs are carnivorous animals that live in Africa, the Middle East, and India. And it feeds on animals such as deer and zebras. It is generally believed that the cheetah is the fastest-running animal among mammals, with a speed of 120-130 kilometers per hour. In fact, cheetahs have a docile personalities.
Therefore, there were legends of raising cheetahs for hunting in ancient times.
So, why can cheetahs run so fast? It has a light body and a streamlined body, which can minimize wind resistance; the spine is soft, allowing the front legs to be stretched further during the leap.
The claws cannot be retracted, and the soles of the feet are particularly rough, which can increase the gripping ability; the tail's length helps it maintain balance while running. And in its body, the lungs and heart are enlarged, which can fully cope with the sudden increase in cardiopulmonary load when running vigorously. Because of these conditions, it can run fast.
However, such a fast speed cannot be sustained for a long time. If you can only persist for a distance of 500-800 meters, you must slow down.
Although hunted prey such as deer and zebras can only run at a speed of about 80 kilometers per hour, because they can run at the same speed for a long time, as long as they have a certain distance from the cheetah, they can not be eaten by the cheetah.
Therefore, cheetahs only attack when they are as close as possible to their prey

The cheetah is an animal of the cat family Cheetah. The cheetah is one of the fastest-running animals on land in the world, and its speed can reach 115 kilometers per hour.
If the human sprint world champion competes with a cheetah in a 100-meter race, the cheetah can let the world champion run 60 meters first, and the cheetah will be the first one to reach the finish line.
Faster than the cheetah is the frigate bird. The frigate bird is a large sea bird whose wings can reach a width of 2 meters.
Although it is large in size, it is not only a speed champion but also a flying champion. Its fastest speed can reach 418 kilometers per hour. And at the same time, it can fly as far as 4000 kilometers without stopping.
In addition, the frigate bird is the only bird that is not afraid of the 12-level gale. In the 12-level gale, the frigate bird can fly and land from the air.
