Cheetah Brain

Cheetahs are big cats in the subfamily Felinae that lives mostly in Africa and parts of Asia such as Iran. It is the only extant member of the genus Acinonyx. They are known to run as fast as 109.4 to 120.7 km/h (68.0 to 75.0 mph) which is faster than any other land animal. It covers distances up to 500 m (1,640 ft) in short bursts and can accelerate from 0 to 96 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in only three seconds. Its body has evolved for speed, with long legs, an elongated spine, adapted claws to grip the ground and a long tail for balance. Cheetahs have a pale yellow coat with black dots on the upper parts and are white on the underbelly. Their faces are distinguished by prominent, black lines that curve from the inner corner of each eye to the outer corners of the mouth. They are social animals who are usually found in groups, consisting of either a mother and her young, siblings (who stay together for around six months after leaving the mother) or a coalition of males who live and hunt together. Adult females, however, tend to be solitary and only meet with males to mate.猎豹是猫亚科（Felinae）下的大型猫科动物，主要栖息于非洲及亚洲部分区域（如伊朗）。它是猎豹属（Acinonyx）现存的唯一物种。猎豹的最高奔跑时速可达109.4至120.7公里（68.0至75.0英里），为陆地动物之首；单次短距离冲刺可覆盖最远500米（1640英尺），且仅需3秒即可从0加速至96公里/小时（0至60英里/小时）。其身体结构已为高速奔跑演化：修长四肢、延长的脊柱、适配抓地的特化爪部，以及用于维持平衡的长尾。 猎豹躯体覆有浅黄褐色被毛，背部布有黑色斑点，腹部则呈白色。其面部极具辨识度，两道醒目的黑色条纹从每只眼睛的内眼角延伸至嘴角外侧。 猎豹为群居动物，通常以群体形式活动：群体可由母豹与其幼崽组成，或是由离开母豹后共同生活约6个月的同胞兄弟姐妹构成，亦或是由共同生活、协同捕猎的雄性联盟组成。不过成年雌性猎豹通常独居，仅在交配时才会与雄性个体接触。
