Life habits of cheetahs

Cheetah can be said to be the "sprint champion" in the world. Scientists have repeatedly observed and calculated in the wild, and found that cheetahs can reach 1 13 kilometers per hour when chasing their favorite antelope, which is faster than the famous runner-Indian antelope. Deer, horses and hounds lag far behind. But when running a long distance, the speed is much slower. It averages about 60 kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to the speed of African ostriches. Cheetahs are like leopards, slightly smaller than leopards; The limbs are like dogs, and even the characteristics are a bit like dogs: they can squat, are easy to tame, and are loyal to their owners. The head is a bit like a cat, small and round, with short ears. It barks like a jaguar, sometimes like a bird. In some countries, people also use cheetahs to race. Capture or buy a batch of cheetahs from Africa and Asia, domesticate them, and then sell lottery tickets for profit like horse racing and running dogs. 1937, in the trial run of a dog farm in London, a cheetah ran three times with an average speed of 69.5 kilometers per hour. Obviously, it didn't do its best. On the earth, there used to be a large number of cheetahs, distributed in a vast area extending from southern Africa to the Mongolian border. At present, the habitat is only in some great plains of East Africa, Iran, Afghanistan and India. Cheetahs live in jungles, sparse forests and grasslands. They often live alone or in small groups, each group is about 5-6. Every morning and evening, cheetahs come out to look for prey. Rabbits, birds, antelopes, zebras and pigs are often hunted. The "tactics" of hunting are as follows: when encountering prey, if the cheetah has sufficient physical strength, it will pursue it at a high speed with "lightning speed", knock it down and bite its throat; If the physical strength is slightly poor, be careful to ambush, then climb close to the prey and pursue again; When they meet antelopes, zebras and wildebeests, all cheetahs will cooperate with Qi Xin to kill their prey. Usually, a cheetah's "home" has only a small group of females and children. Every breeding season, male and female cheetahs live together. After mating, the male cheetah runs away from home, and the responsibility of bearing and raising children is entirely borne by the female cheetah. Cheetahs often follow their mothers, and their mothers will take good care of their children. After weaning for 3 months, mothers should provide their children with sufficient prey every day. The baby cheetah is growing up, and the mother cheetah should train her children's hunting skills. They play together, sometimes learning to strut like their mothers and spy on their prey; Sometimes they chase each other and beat each other, just like chasing prey; Sometimes they wrestle and beat each other, just like fighting their prey. Soon, the baby cheetah went hunting with her mother and learned her hunting skills from the wild. When the female cheetah killed an antelope, the young cheetahs gathered around and scrambled to bite. Although cheetahs are expert hunters, the strong also have the hands of the strong, and they are often attacked by lions and leopards, and even hunting dogs will attack cheetahs. The main target is the baby cheetah less than three months old. Because their mother went out hunting without protection, they became victims of large carnivores. Cheetah's fake fur is very precious, and people kill it at will, and the number drops sharply, which is on the verge of extinction.
