The fastest animal in Africa

Before Cheetah

The cheetah is the world's fastest land animal and can reach speeds up to 113 kph (70 mph). It is about 00-30 mph in less than 3 seconds (as most Ferraris), and can maintain its speed for a few hundred meters (+ / - 400 m). have long legs to allow non-retractable claws, the grip on the ground, and the cat uses its tail for balance and direction change.

According to Leo

About 250 kg of pure and powerful muscles that can act asFaster than 81 km / h (50.3 mph)! Not bad for the "King of the Jungle, huh?:)

Third Gnu

Preyed on by lions and cheetahs occasionally wildebeest'd better move fast if they want to their attackers! You can have bad eyes, but their pace is impressive: up to 80 mph mph (50)!

Fourth Ostrich

The bouquet is by far the best bird racer out there, and also the fastest animal on two legs in the world. Even if you can not fly, can be performed: 72 mph (45mph)!

Fifth Thomson's Gazelle

In the Serengeti plains, these guys just a cheetah's favorite food! Easy prey to speak, but Thomson's gazelles have great strength and his legs, driving at speeds over 65 kph (40 mph)! Nine out of ten, are all overcome Predators over long distances and can generate sharp bends with ease.

Sixth African Wild Dog

Also known as "Cape Hunting Dogs" known or Painted Hunting Dogs "These wild dogs are the most successfulRate during the chase (85%). Their speed is also a bit 'strange, with sprints up to 64 kph (39.7 mph)!

Seventh Giraffe

Giraffe a single "Slow Motion" have style and running! The cap is not the Monaco, as can easily reach speeds of 50 kph (31 mph).

8th Hippo

Yes, you heard me right, the hippo is one of the top 10 fastest animal in Africa! Hard to believe? You can save up to 48 kph (30 mph) in the country, and can also can go as fast as a man, while running on water.Bring It On Mr. Usain Bolt, you have to do some 'training:)

NB: Just to qualify things, Usain Bolt (the world's fastest man 'til this day is expected) only 37.57 km / h (23 mph). peezy Easy, do this in my sleep !;):) In other words, would not make it in this auction.

Ninth Rhinoceros

45 km / h (27.9 mph) for the black rhinoceros, and about 40 km / h (24.8 mph) for the white rhino for short distances. Do not be disturbed!

10th African Elephant

12.9 km / his usually the norm, while the full load go "out" time easily reach speeds upwards of 40 mph! They say an elephant charging can be stopped by a large stone (or log) in front of the front legs of animals. They have tried, but do not suggest taking the risk ... If a charging elephant is something you never forget:)
