Animals that faster than a cheetah

Max Speed

112–120 km/h

 (70–75 mph)

   The Cheetah can accelerate from 0 to 96.6 km/h (60.0 mph) in under three seconds, though endurance is limited: most Cheetahs run for only 60 seconds at a time.When sprinting, Cheetahs spend more time in the air than on the ground.

 Cheetah is the fastest Animal on the Land, but still there are animals that are faster than a cheetah

Who they are...? 

 Peregrine Falcon

Max Speed

389 km/h 

(242 mph)

   The Peregrine Falcon is the fastest bird, and the fastest member of the animal kingdom. When in its hunting dive, the stoop, it soars to a great height, then dives steeply at speeds of over 200 mph. However, it does not hold first place when travelling in level flight.

  Golden Eagle

Max Speed

300 km/h

(187 mph)

   When hunting or displaying, the Golden eagle is capable of very fast gliding, attaining speeds of up to 190 km/h (120 mph). When diving (or stooping) in the direction of prey or during territorial displays, the Golden eagle holds its wings tight and partially closed against its body and the legs up against its tail. In a full stoop, a Golden eagle can reach spectacular speeds of up to 240 to 320 kilometers per hour (150 to 200 mph) when diving after prey.

White-throated Needletail

 Max Speed  

169 km/h 

(105 mph)

   White-throated Needletailhave very short legs which they use only for clinging to vertical surfaces. They build their nests in rock crevices in cliffs or hollow trees.  

   White-throated Needletailnever settle voluntarily on the ground and spend most of their lives in the air, living on the insects they catch in their beaks. White-throated Needletail is the fastest-flying bird in flapping flight.

 Amazing Speed right.. but enough for Birds

Black Marlin

Max Speed 

130 km/h 

(80 mph)

   The Black Marlin (Istiompax indica) is a species of marlin found in tropical and subtropical areas of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.Black Marlin is one of the fastest fish, with speeds of up to 80 mph (130 km/h) as estimated from the speed that hooked marlins are able to unwind fishing line.

Horse Fly

 

hahaha just kidding that's not Horse Fly, this is the true Horse Fly

Max Speed 

145.0 km/h 

(90.1 mph)

   Horseflies will develop as larvae for 1-2 years, however they only live for a few days as adults.  Adult Horse Flies feed on nectar and sometimes pollen. Females of most species are anautogenous, meaning they require a blood meal before they are able to reproduce effectively.

 

All of them are fast.....

Did you Know according to speedofanimals.com , if you're 180 cm tall and you're a Horse Fly 145.0 km/h  it feels like  6525 km/h .
