Cheetahs have approximately 600 muscles in their bodies, which contribute to their remarkable speed and agility. Their muscle structure is specifically adapted for sprinting, with a high proportion of fast-twitch fibers that enable rapid acceleration. This muscular system, combined with their unique skeletal structure, allows cheetahs to reach speeds of up to 60-70 miles per hour in short bursts.

The cat has 517 skeletal muscles (humans have 650). 32 of these are for moving and using the ears.Cats can make more than 100 vocal sounds.
