Representing the terrestrial world we have the Cheetah.
Cheetah is commonly found in Africa. It is known as the fastest predator of the terrestrial world. This feline can reach speeds of 112 to 120 km/h covering short distances of around 500 meters and can accelerate from 0 to 100 in just 3 seconds. This animal is so fast that it can exceed the acceleration capacity of many cars, and even many car models are inspired by this born hunter. The cheetah is the only feline that has retractile claws.
Your speed is not only given by the shape of your body and the power of your four legs if not your nostrils that are larger to allow more oxygen to enter during a race, and your heart is larger than normal To circulate more blood. His body is even more amazing: the tail allows him to maneuver during his career, giving quick turns to reach his prey.
Representing the aquatic world we have the shark mako
If the cheetah is the king of speed on land its aquatic representative is the mako shark that can achieve a speed of 124 km/h It can reach a maximum length of 4 meters. They can be found in the temperate regions, mostly in the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Ocean and in the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea, it is recognizable by its blue-gray pigmentation, its large and very sharp teeth protruding when the shark closes its mouth.
Heaven has its own king and that is the Peregrine Falcon.
This popular species of bird of prey belongs to the family of hawks and exhibits a large size. The peregrine falcon has a bluish-gray back, a black head, and a large mustache in its beak.
If the cheetah reaches speeds of 110 and 120 km/h and the mako shark reaches 124 km/h, the peregrine falcon reaches a top speed of 389 km/h. The peregrine falcon can be found in almost any region of the planet except in polar areas, very high mountains or tropical forests.
