Learning Something Everyday - November 2006

Fact: Cheetah

November 3rd 2006 09:00

Cheetahs are long-legged, swift-running wild cats of Africa and southwest Asia, with solid black round or oval spots.

The cheetah is the fastest animal on land and can reach a top speed of 71 mph, which it can maintain for about 10-20 seconds.

Cheetahs are hunters and eat a variety of small to medium-sized animals. The name "cheetah" comes from a Hindi word meaning "spotted one" or from the Sanskrit word chitraka.

The cheetah is the second most social cat behind the lion. It cannot roar, but can purr like a cat.

In my mother tongue, a cheetah is called a jagluiperd. Literally it means, hunting leopard.
