This theme is part of my BEST OF series and dedicated to the best TN photos of cheetahs. The Cheetah is a member of the cat family (Felidae). It is unique for making up in speed and stealth what it lacks in climbing abilities. It is the fastest of all land animals and can reach speeds up to 120km/h. It has the ability to accelerate from 0-110km/h in 3 seconds, faster than most supercars. The word is from the Sanskrit chitrakāyah, meaning "variegated body". |
