The cheetah is an animal with the letter C. It is a genus of predatory mammal from the cat subfamily of the felidae family. It is the fastest land mammal on Earth. It is characterized by a small, rounded head with small ears. Two black lines, like tear marks, run from the inner corners of the eyes to the mouth. The coat of the cheetah is usually grayish yellow or reddish, with even small black spots.

The cheetah inhabits plains, steppes and savannas, sharing space with lions, leopards and hyenas. Despite fierce competition, the animal manages to survive due to its reliable speed.
