The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a ѕрeсіeѕ of big cat known for being the fastest land animal in the world. With its streamlined body shape, long legs, and flexible spine, it can sprint at speeds up to 112 km/h (70 mph). Adult cheetahs typically have an average shoulder height of 77 cm (30 inches), a length of 112-142 cm (44-56 inches), and weigh between 34-64 kg (75-140 lbs).
The primary ргeу for cheetahs consists of small to medium-sized animals such as gazelles, rabbits, warthogs, and birds. They are known to һᴜпt during the early morning and twilight hours.
