Is cheetah a male or a female?
Usually it is the female lions. Female lions usually lead a peaceful life and do not involve in fights. On the other hand, the male lions live to fight. When they are around 4-5 years old they dethrone a male lion (probably kill it) and take over its pride. They will rule the pride for the next 4-5 years when they are at their prime strength and stamina. After that another younger lion would replace him. This way male lions do not live past 10 years or more. Female lions are known to live to upto 15 years.

What is a good introdution about cheetahs?
Cheetahs are endangered species. There are very few of them left in the wild. This is called by habitat loss, people killing them, and because it is very hard for the females to produce young (they are very picky). Since cheetahs live in grasslands and savanahs they have black lines that come from the corners of their eyes to the corners of their mouth like those of a football players to let them see better in the sun. The cheetahs young are kept hidden while the mother hunts. She tades them to a new hiding place each time so that hyenas , lions and other predators don't find the cubs. The young Have mane-like fur on their backs which mades them look like a honey badger, a predator that most animals are afraid of. Since females live alone unlike the males they rely completely on hiding places and diguises to protect their cubs. Cheetahs are amazing! They can gain speeds up to 40 miles per hour in just 2 seconds! Their top speed is 60 miles per hour. That's about how fast cars go on the freeway. To catch prey cheetahs grab the prey by the throat and wait until it stops breathing before they let go. they eat fast so that bigger cats lide lions don't eat it first! for more info check out www.cheetahspot.com.

Is a cheetah faster than a sailfish?
A cheetah is faster. The big cats can reach a speed of 112 to 120 km/hr (70 to 75 mph). Usain Bolt runs a course of 200 meters in 19.3 seconds, but that is only an average speed of 37.3 km/hr (23.1 mph). His top speed is only about 50 km/hr (30 mph).
The cheetah also has faster acceleration : 0 to 64 mph in 3 seconds, which is faster than most cars other than dragsters.
Bolt would need a head start, because he could probably continue running once the cheetah tired after about 400 meters. Or he could drive his BMW.
Because their feet are built like a sprinter's. Sprinters only use the balls of their feet to run on, not the whole foot, leaving less surface area to land on and a smaller area (and more buoyancy) to go off of. Horses' hooves are not cloven, but only a single hoof, and through the process of evolution, have developed so that they are quit literally standing on their tippy toes, much like a human sprinter does when he's sprinting. Muscle power in the shoulders and flanks also help power horses to run as fast as 50 mph in short fast bursts, but not maintain that speed for very long.
