Who is the fastest runner in the animal kingdom?

The cheetah is the fastest animal in the world to run on land, it can reach speeds of up to 115 kilometers per hour. If the human sprint world champion were to race the 100 meters with the cheetah, the cheetah would allow the world champion to run 60 meters first, and it would be the cheetah who would reach the finish line instead of the sprint world champion.

But it should be noted that since the cheetah runs so fast, it is a test for its entire body's respiratory and circulatory systems. When it runs at speeds of more than 115 km/h, its respiratory and circulatory systems are overloaded. Because the cheetah is unable to expel the accumulated heat all at once, it is easy to have prostration symptoms, so the cheetah can only sprint a few hundred meters before it slows down.

Otherwise, it will overheat and collapse. So this kind of running is very depressing, sometimes it is the cheetah that catches the prey, because it ran too fast just now, so it can't eat at that time, and it has to take a break, or gasp, before it can start eating.

Cheetahs are the fastest animals known to run on land, several kilometers per minute.

It should be a cheetah, with a speed of 110 kilometers per hour.

Cheetah. 100-120 kilometers per hour.

The fastest mammal on Earth is the cheetah, with an average speed of 64 kilometers per hour and even 120 kilometers per hour for a short time. But no matter how fast they ran, they didn't run away from human influence, and according to a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the global population of cheetahs is only 7,100 and is on the verge of extinction.

Inadequate habitat and illegal trafficking.

There are two main reasons why cheetahs are in such a tragic situation.

First, due to farmland construction and land ownership reform, cheetahs have limited protected land.

The existing protected areas do not cover the range of cheetahs, which are so vigorous and wide-ranging, but 77% of their habitat is not in national parks or protected areas. In addition, illegal human hunting has also reduced the food for cheetahs**. In fact, human activity has led to a sharp decline in the number of cheetahs in Zimbabwe from 1,200 to 170 within 16 years.

Cheetahs living in Asia have almost completely disappeared, with one research team estimating that the number of cheetahs in Iran does not exceed 50.

"Historically, cheetahs have been haunted by the mystery, making it difficult to gather information, understand or even ignore the plight they are facing," the researchers said. But in reality, studies have found that cheetahs need more space to live, and given the complex environment in the wild: cheetahs may be more vulnerable to extinction than they think.

The second reason is the illegal trafficking of cheetah cubs.

If it is understandable that humans have to encroach on the living space of cheetahs because of their own agricultural housing development, then there is no doubt that the illegal trafficking of cheetahs should be strictly prohibited. According to Cheetah Conservation**, about 1,200 cheetahs have been illegally trafficked from Africa in the past decade, with 85% of them dying in transit.

It is reassuring to note that at the recent CITES meeting in South Africa, countries** agreed to introduce new measures to address this issue and crack down on advertising that promotes the sale of cheetahs.

Change the perception of local residents and raise the endangered status of cheetahs.

Fundamentally, however, addressing the issue of cheetah protected areas is a top priority and is urgent.

To address this issue, the study calls for a radical shift in mindset from "enclosing a plot to protect cheetahs" to incorporating "incentives" to increase community engagement. That is, paying local residents to protect the cheetah, a species that has long been seen as a dangerous predator.

The study profoundly shows that a single protected area is far from enough, and that all protected areas and non-protected areas must be integrated to form a larger protected area in order to truly protect cheetahs.

In addition, in order to make the public aware of the dangerous situation of cheetahs, the study also called on IUCN to adjust the classification of cheetahs from "vulnerable" to "endangered". The move would also help protect cheetahs around the world, which could otherwise disappear at an accelerated rate, as the study authors feared.

Thank you, this is a false proposition, in the basic and generalized concept of endurance, people and animals are not comparable.

Why? Because in strict and rigorous logic, comparing a quality and a ability is to establish a fair environment for comparison and eliminate the influence of other variables. Endurance competition can't do this, in fact, the same similar generalization concept can't be done.

For example, strength, not to mention the comparison between humans and animals, the comparison between humans and people, also around 140 kilograms, the strongest three strength athletes, weightlifting, strong men, and powerlifting. Which one has the most power? It depends on what criteria you use to define strength, whether it is squatting, pushing and pulling, or grasping and straightening, or pulling a car or bouldering.

People can't make a more generalized concept than people, how can people and animals be compared?

It is generally known that bulls have more power than people, but can a bull pull pull in a clean and jerk, or a deadlift? No, because its body structure can't do this kind of movement, and how can a bull be fair to compare strength with a human strong man? Tug-of-war?

This is unfair to man, because man cannot exert his maximum strength in the anterior-posterior direction of the sagittal plane. Therefore, we usually say that cattle are more powerful than people, which is based on the vagueness and generalization of a large amount of information cognition, and cannot be used to clearly use logic to compare the truth.

So there is no comparison in endurance, let alone a comparison, because the concept of endurance is more generalized and less precise than strength. Most of us who are engaged in sports and fitness know that the word endurance mostly represents two kinds of physical fitness, muscular endurance and cardiorespiratory endurance, and the physiological basis of the two qualities is different. What kind of strength output range of a person is called endurance?

If a person completes 80% of their maximum weight 10 times and another can only do 7 times, but 70% of the maximum weight is done 14 times and the former only 12 times, then who has good muscle endurance? Strictly speaking, it can only be said that the former has better muscular endurance than the latter at 80% of the maximum power output.

This is still based on the removal of individual differences, environmental adaptation differences, and many other uncontrollable variables, which cannot be compared, and the overall comparison is nonsense. “

So we can say in general, vague terms that humans are very good animals with stamina, but when it comes to the obvious and precise comparison of "most", we should abandon this boring argument.

All the mammalian arguments that believe that human endurance is the best, without exception, are "reverse-engineered rules of the game according to human superiority".

For example, why should you carry a weight if you stipulate it first? Animals in nature, except for a period of time after the birth of a small animal, who carry weight all day long? Your own infantry has to carry guns and water bottles or something, that's your business, animals don't bear weight.

Horses are the most important means of transportation for humans. It has strong limbs, is fast and flexible, faithful and spiritual, and more importantly, the horse is the perfect combination of speed and endurance to accomplish no matter how difficult the task. In addition, the speed and endurance of the wolf are commendable.

In fact, the mammal with the best stamina is the elephant, which weighs 80 times that of a human and can walk 80 kilometers a day.

Anyway, the mammal with the best stamina is definitely not human, because there are too many mammals with more stamina than humans, camels
