Description
Common Name: Cheetah
Common Name Synonyms: Spotted Puma, Hunting Leopard, Acinonychus, Graeyhound Cat
Scientific Name: Puma/Acinonyx jubatus
Size: 65-95cm tall in the shoulders, 110-150cm from head to tail-base + 66-95cm long tail = 176-245cm from snout to tail
Classification: Feliform
Habitat: Grasslands, Deserts, Savannas
Diet: Carnivorous; diet consisted of gazelles, antelopes, wildebeests, deer, sheep, goats, foxes, young zebras, rabbits, ostriches, and even other cheetahs
Description: Making these cats becoming Endangered Species, is bad news, since late 2016 to onwards from early 2017, but now that they are threatened by habitat loss, poaching, illegal pet trades, and attacks with humans. And we already know, that cheetahs are the fastest land mammal in the entire world, which they have hollow bones, strong muscles, big lungs, and long legs which this is the reason why the cheetah was very fast. Also they have their claws, not retractable, so that cheetahs are still cats, but their built is similar to dogs, like that of the maned wolf, African hooey hound, and wolves for example, all due to their convergent evolution. Cheetahs are much more social than other cats(except for lions, which lions hunted in packs, called "prides."), which the males are sociable in small packs, even a female(whose either a mother, or a mate) is with the coalition of males, while most females are highly solitary(except for a strong bonding between mother and her kittens). Lions, tigers, and leopards are nocturnal, but cheetahs are diurnal, which this cat is active at day, and sleep all night, sometimes. Competitors to cheetahs, are leopards, lions, spotted and brown hyenas, and African hooey hounds, for their kill, and even other cheetahs are competitors to each other. They can stalk prey by vision, than smell. They can sneak into the grass, hiding from what their prey noticing, so they can't tell, what's up with their spots. Speaking of spots, the name "Chita," comes from the Sanskrit word, meaning "Spotted" or "Sprinkled," due to their golden fur coat is covered in polka-dot spots. They are almost the same size as leopards, but leopards had short legs, long-tailed, muscular, and almost lion-like, marked with rosettes instead of small round spots. As a fact, leopards don't have tear-streaks, but cheetahs do, because A: Leopards are more closely related to lions, and B: Cheetahs are close cousins to pumas and jaguarundis. During the Ice Age, cheetahs used to live in United States of America, in the wild, due to the fact that they descended from American Cheetahs(Miracinonyx). American spotted cheetahs, began to migrate to Siberia, and split up to South Asia, Europe, and today Africa, before humans hunted them, and/or tame them. In India and Persian, cheetahs are known to be tamed for royalty, and they are used for hunting deer, gazelles, and even nilgais. Nowadays, Asian cheetahs are still the most Critically endangered species, due to habitat loss, poaching, illegal pet trades, and even war against the terrorists. Researchers need everyone who are NOT poachers and pet-sellers, to conserve these dog-like felines for their threatened habitats of Africa and Persia, for example, they had to reintroduce the cheetahs to northwestern India to repopulate. For Africa and South Asia, cheetahs must be the very important parts of the ecosystem, like jackals, lions, hyenas, wolves, bears, tigers, and leopards for example.
