Built for the Blink: How Nature Drafted the Ultimate Speed Blueprint

by Thabo Sebata
December 10, 2025

The cheetah is a superfast animal, built like a finely tuned race car. It has a bendy spine for big pushes, claws for amazing grip, and a long tail to steer itself. Its body is so special that it gets hot super fast, so it has to stop running often to cool down. This makes it a great sprinter but not a longdistance runner. Even its tear marks help it see better, and its chirps are like secret messages. Now, people are working hard to save these amazing animals, using their special features to help them survive and even teach us new things.
