The fastest land animal in the world. Cheetahs are known for their ability to move fast. This feature helps them a lot. First, to hunt other preys who can escape quickly. The other one is to escape when they are in danger. The color of the cheetah has black spots covers the body. The cheetah is considered as a kind of cats. It has muscular legs, a small rounded head set on a long neck, and a flexible spine. Despite the speed of cheetahs, they cannot run at full speed in long distances because they might overheat. Also, the trail is used for the balance of the cheetah.
Cheetahs are mostly found in open savannas. Their behavior is different from other cats. When the cubs first born, they will be taught how to hunt by their mothers for a long time. The ultimate cause of teaching the cubs how to hunt is to make them ready and rely on them selves when they become older.They prefer to hunt in early morning or evening. The proximate cause of the cheetah when it kills the prey and eats quickly and keeps an eye around its prey, is to make its prey for its self only and not to be shared by other animals. The female will be accompanied by the male for a short of time after mating, but usually the female stays alone or with its cubs. Furthermore, when the cubs first born they will be helpless, so while the female hunting, it leaves the cubs hidden. The cubs begin to follow their mother at the age of 6 weeks.
