The cheetah lives on the open plains of Africa and finds its prey by sight. Its main quarry is the antelope which it is able to outrun from great distances. Over a short distance it is thought to be the fastest animal on earth, so it can easily bring down other animals as prey.
Cheetah is very sharp in sigh. It can get it prey with fastest speed. If a prey is even a mile away the cheetah had special sense of trapping it prey until he eats it.
