Cheetahs

Well they hunt for pray, and they run fast, up to 80 MPH their the fastest LAND animal on the earth!
They sleep. A lot. Like 14-16 hours a day. They walk their territory, mark it, chase off smaller predators, run from larger predators. They hunt. They make baby cheetahs. That's pretty much it.

Yes. The cheetah is an apex or top level predator. There are no known predators for adult cheetahs however they can be killed by lions rarely. Cheetah's usually prey on smaller herbivores like Gazelles, Impala and Springbok. They don't have the size or strength to hunt down larger prey like zebra or wildebeest

I Say Watch Their Surrounding And Be Careful

Cheetahs do not have retractable claws as do other cats.

Cougars are warm blooded, like all mammals.

One reason is because of its loss of habitat

they live in the grasslands of East Africa and the South-West African country of Namibia

. Though there are numerous predators in the Savannah like Cheetahs, Hyenas, Leopards etc, the Lion is the only predator that can bring down/kill a full grown adult Zebra. Because of their size, they are too big to be attacked by smaller predators like Cheetahs and Hyenas. However, Zebra foals are an inviting prey for these smaller predators like Cheetahs. A significant % of Zebra foals fall prey to these predators every year

Sexually
Cheetahs reproduce sexually.

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.

No. The fastest horses, bred and raced for short distances at speed, can reach 50 miles per hour. The top speed of an emu is 50 kilometres per hour (about 30 miles per hour). The advantage the emu has over almost any other animal (including a small, lithe cat) is its ability to make a sudden 180 degree turn while running at top speed, which enables it to outrun its predators.

family cats in your home

Yes. They have their feline hunter instincts and at the same time they learn by seeing their mothers.

We can keep some in captivity so they can survive without fear of being hunted, that is probably the best idea, because even if we make animals illegal to hunt, people will still do it. If you want to help directly, get a degree in zoology and open up a zoo and adopt chettahs.

1 mile = 1.609344 kilometer (rounded) 70 miles = (70 x 1.609344) = 112.654 70 miles per hour = 112.654 kilometers per hour (rounded) Following the statement of the question, this would be referred to as "fast", not "far".

1. a farting cheetah lol
2. a sailfish who ate too much beans lol
3. :-}

o cheetas do not have toes they have paws and it is just like a dog it has 4 nails

Cubs are usually reared in hidden areas like bushes and small caves. The cubs lay hidden and don't make any sound when their mother is out hunting. The mother cheetah frequently moves its young ones to ensure that other large predators like lions or hyenas don't pick up the scent of young ones and kill them.

In spite of all the effort from the mother, nearly 70% or more cubs get killed in the first year

Cheetah's mate and reproduce all year round. They don't have any mating season as such. After a gestation period of around 90 to 98 days, a female give birth to a litter of upto 9 cubs. But, the average litter size is between 3 to 5 cubs. The cubs weigh an average of 150 to 300 grams at birth and stay with the mother for approximately 2 years. During this period, the mother protects her cubs and feeds them.

Male cheetahs take no part in raising the young ones. The females do it all by themselves.

Yes! You can! At the amazing worldwildlifefund.org, you can get gifts for donating too!

I am a professor at Stanford, and I teach biology, and I know that Cheetahs use their sense of taste through their whiskers, which, believe it or not, have little taste buds of their own on each whisker. :)

Cheetahs are better as pets than the other big cats - Lions, Tigers or Leopard. A Lion or Tiger, even if hand-reared, is still a killer that can turn on you. Cheetahs, on the other hand, do not generally attack humans, and adapt better to human contact.

However, there are many obstacles to owning a cheetah as a pet.

Depending on where you live, you might need expensive permits, or a lengthy application process before you are allowed to keep a cheetah. In some places you simply will not be allowed to legally keep a cheetah.

You will also need the facilities to keep a cheetah. You will need a fair amount of space, you'll need to build a secure enclosure to keep the cheetah in. You will need to spend time with it regularly.

If the cat does escape, it's likely to cause alarm or panic among your neighbors, so you will have to be prepared for that.

You will need to buy a lot of meat to keep the cat fed. Cheetahs are expensive to feed, and need around six pounds of fresh meat daily.

Cheetahs can live for 20 years in captivity, so you have to be prepared for that.

Ultimately, although the cheetah is the most tameable of all the big cats, it is not a domesticated animal, and even if reared from birth by humans, it is not going to be as tame as a dog or domestic cat. You will still need to behave carefully around it, or it could maul you.
