Schleich - Cheetah Female 14746

Cheetahs are excellent hunters.

First of all they approach their prey very carefully until they are within a few metres, then when the time is right, they run at lightning speed.

If the fleeing prey suddenly changes direction, the Cheetah can simply turn its body mid-leap. Its flexible spine makes this possible.

However, if they have no success after a few hundred metres, they have to give up. The high speed is so energy-sapping, they can only keep it up for a short distance.
