Cheetahs are no breed they are one species. But there are different breeds of the species, there is the king cheetah. Here are some facts about what the king cheetahis like and how they are different to the normal cheetahs.
The King Cheetah is even rarer than the regular one. It easy to tell the two apart. On a king cheetahs back there's 3 distinct black lines, their tails are bushier, the tails are more striped and the spots are fullerthan a normal cheetahs. A king cheetah lives in the same environment and acts the same, they even live and breed with normal cheetahs. There was a debate about whether the king cheetah was a whole separate species, a sub-species, a colour phase and even a cheetah-leopard hybrid as analysts confirmed that a king cheetahs pattern was more leopard like than cheetah, but it is still a cheetah. A king cheetah may even be born to two normal cheetahs if there is a king cheetah in the family (ancestors). If the two parents are king cheetahs it doesn't mean their cubs will definatly be king cheetahs.
