Occurrence of cheetahs

• Cheetahs live in the Africa, but in the past also
  in the India.
• Today, without Africa, they also live in the
  south edges of the Sahara and isolated location
  in Iran.

Reproduction

• Females gives to up to nine cubs after a
  gestation period of ninety to ninety eight days,
  although the average litter size is three to
  five. Cubs weigh from 150 to 300 g at birth.

Unlike some other cats, the cheetah is born with
its characteristic spots and with a downy
underlying mane on their necks, called a mantle.

Cheetahs social life

• Unlike males, females are solitary and tend to
  avoid each other, though some mother/daughter
  pairs are known. Cheetahs have a unique,
  well-structured social order. Females live alone
  except when they are having cubs. The first
  eighteen months of a cub's life are important -
  cubs learn many lessons because survival depends
  on knowing how to hunt wild prey species and
  avoid other

predators. At eighteen months, the mother leaves
the cubs, who then form a sibling, that will stay
together for another six months. At about two
years, the female siblings leave the group, and
the young males remain together for life.

The cheetahs speed

• Cheetah is the fastest land animal. It reaches
  speed between 112 and 120 km/h in short distances
  up to 460 metres.
• It also has the ability to accelerate from 0 to
  to 65 km/h in two seconds.

Cheetahs Diet Hunting

• Cheetahs hunt by vision rather than by scent.
  When prey is good visible by them (to within
  10-30 metres), then they will chase. They usually
  chase over in less than a minute, and if the
  cheetah fails to make a catch quickly, it will
  give up.
