The cheetah is the fastest land animal in the world. It lives in Africa, has a slender spotted body, and hunts fast antelopes.
The cheetah differs from other cats in that it hardly retracts its claws and cannot roar. It is important for nature because it regulates the population of herbivorous animals in African savannas.
