By:Michelle Deng

Did you know that cheetahs can run up to 75mph?
That's faster than most cars!

WHAT DO THEY LOOK LIKE?

  • They have spots! The spots help blend into their surroundings so they can catch prey by suprise
  • every cheetah has at least 4-6 rings on its tail
  • baby cheetahs have manes called mantles
  • They have small heads
  • Grown cheetahs have manes, but they are very short and most times cannot be seen
  • cheetahs are 30-36 in tall
  • Cheetahs are also 7 1/2 fr long from the head to the tip of the tail

Habitats

  • Cheetahs live in many parts of Africa, like...
  • Namibia(Na-mib-i-a)
  • Botswana(bot-swa-na
  • Kenya(ken-ya)
  • Tanzania(tans-an-i-a)
  • and north western Iran.

ADAPTATIONS

  • baby cheetahs have mantles which make them look like badgers, which are feirce animals that are NOT to be messed with
  • cheetahs have black spots around their body to blend into their surroundings
  • their small head and grey hound like bodies makes them exellent sprinters
  • they have much more flexible spines that allows them to take longer strides then other felines
  • long tails help twist in mid-air

Aren't I amazing?
I got a flexible spine to twist and turn in mid air
And a beautiful grey hound like body for easy sprinting
