Cheetahs hunt by chasing the animal, mostly during the day when other predators are sleeping. The cheetah is the fastest animal on land. They can run up to 70 miles per hour! Since the cheetah is designed for speed and not long distance running, they sneak up on their prey to get as close as possible before the sprint. The cheetah will stalk a prey animal, and when it is not paying attention, the cheetah leaps out and runs toward it. The cheetah will try to trip the animal by pulling its legs out from under it as they run.
