Cheetahs
The Cheetah, Acinonyx jubatus, is a member of the cat family, Felidae. They hunt by sight and speed, rather than by stealth typical of other big cats. The fastest of all terrestrial animals reaching speeds of over 110 km/hour (60 mph) in short bursts, it is the only cat that cannot completely retract its claws.

How does cheetah look after cheetah young?
A mother cheetah looks after her young by moving its den every few days, to keep pretators from tracking the cubs down and eating them. The mother will also trap small animals, and bring them to the den for the cubs to play with and build their hunting skills. The mother cheetah also hunts for the cheetah cubs until they are old enough to take turns hunting. Then the mother cheetah, when the cubs are old enough to look after themselves, moves out, leaving the cheetahs to survive by themselves.
Can cheetahs run at 100 kilometres per hour which is faster than the fastest bird can run?
The fastest land animal is the cheetah which has a recorded speed of 109.4-120.7 km/h (68.0-75.0 mph).

The fastest ground bird (flightless runner) is the Ostrich which can run at 96.6.km/h (60 mph).

The Cheetah are useful to people in more than one way. They are apex predators; as such, they provide food for a variety of scavengers in their habitat range. Because their method of adaptation has led them to have a limited gene pool, they are a living example of 'why' people should not participate in inbreeding.
