Did you know that the cheeetah is the fastest animal on earth? Find out more about this African wild animal and enjoy our cheetah colouring pages, printables and worksheets below.
Cheetahs live in south and east Africa and some parts of Iran. They are tall, long and thin, with small heads and big chests, and characteristic spots on their bodies which provide excellent camouflage when they wait in the long grass for their prey.
They can run fast! For short bursts, usually when hunting, they can reach 100 km/h (70 mph)! Even more amazing, they can accelerate from 0 to 60mph in only 3 seconds! When they catch their prey, they will trip it up and then kill it - and then may take up to half an hour to recover their breath before they eat!
In the distant past, cheetahs have been successfully tamed and used for hunting. They were also hunted extensively themselves for their fur, and are now few enough (with only about 7,000 cheethahs still living in the wild) to be classified as "vulnerable" and on the verge of "endangered".
Fun fact: A group of male cheetahs is called a "coalition"
