The Cheetah


Cheetahs are the fastest land animal.

These cats have long, slender bodies covered with unique black spots scattered across their tan coats.
The name "Cheetah" comes from the Sanskrit word "Chitraka" which means "the spotted one."
Cheetahs are formidable carnivores that can sprint at speeds up to 60 to 70 mph. This cat can turn very quickly, even while in midair, thanks to their long tail, which counters their body weight.
Female cheetahs tend to be solitary, while male cheetahs live in groups made up of other male siblings called 'coalitions.'
Female cheetahs are pregnant for around 3 months and have a litter of 3 to 5 cubs. When the cubs are about 6 months old, the mother will start teaching them how to hunt and how to avoid predators. Mothers live with their cubs for about 18 months.
Cheetahs are carnivorous whose typical prey are small to medium size animals, such as gazelles, hares, young wildebeest, warthogs and birds.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE !
