Speaking rather LOUDLY
Lions roar, Cheetahs purr and growl loudly. Introducing Cheetah facts!

HEAR
Unlike Lions, the kings of jungles everywhere
Cheetahs cannot roar
They purr, hiss, bleat, chirp and growl
Do not underestimate their melodious musical sounds
One can still hear them from a mile away
Cheetahs are not a threat to humans and rarely attack
No recorded case is known of Cheetahs
Killing and eating a human in the wild
They are docile and sociable compared to
Other wild ferocious felines
SEE
They see humans on safaris all the time
Non-fatal attacks do happen in captivity
But only if a cheetah is ever aggravated
TOUCH/Sounds
'Nyam-Nyam' to feed their cubs
'Ihn-NHI' mothers use to call their young
'Purr' like a cat when playing with young
'Bleat' when in distress
Cheetahs have one thyroid bone
While the cousins; lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars
Have two, thus allowing them to roar
The cheetah lives in three main social groups: females and their cubs,
Male "coalitions", and solitary males.
SMELL
Females lead a nomadic life searching for prey in large home ranges.
Males are more sedentary and instead establish much smaller territories
In areas with plentiful prey and access to females.
The cheetah is active during the day, with peaks during dawn and dusk.
TASTE
It feeds on small- to medium-sized prey, mostly weighing under 40 kg (88 lbs).
It prefers medium-sized ungulates such as impala, springbok and
Thomson's gazelles.
The cheetah typically stalks its prey within 60–100 m (200–330 ft).
Before charging towards it, trips it during the chase and bites its throat
Suffocating it to death.
It breeds throughout the year. After a gestation of nearly three months,
A litter of typically three or four cubs is born.
Cheetah cubs are highly vulnerable to predation by other large carnivores,
Such as hyenas and lions. They are weaned at around four months
And are independent by around 20 months of age.

'The cheetah occurs in a variety of habitats such as savannahs in the Serengeti, arid mountain ranges in the Sahara and hilly desert terrain in Iran. The cheetah is threatened by several factors such as habitat loss, conflict with humans, poaching and high susceptibility to diseases. Historically ranging throughout most of Sub-Saharan Africa and extending eastward into the Middle East and to central India, the cheetah is now distributed mainly in small, fragmented populations in central Iran and southern, eastern and northwestern Africa. In 2016, the global cheetah population was estimated at 7,100 individuals in the wild; it is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. In September 2022, they were reintroduced to India after being extinct in the country for 70 years. In the past, cheetahs were tamed and trained for hunting ungulates. They have been widely depicted in art, literature, advertising, and animation". (Wiki).
