Picture Cheetah
You can take a picture cheetah at the zoo; a picture is rare because hunting has wiped almost all of them out.
They have a flexible spine which allows their front legs to stretch far forward on each stride. While running, they cover 20 to 22 feet in one stride. These animals are faster than the fastest racehorse.
