Description

The cheetah is usually a daytime hunter and will often advertise its presence by a hunting scream as it leaps upon its victim.
Comments
Cheetahs are extremely fast over short distances, but tire rapidly. Their Movement should be quartered after their first minute at a dead run. If captured young, cheetahs are especially trainable. Cubs will generally sell for 300-400 Silver Pennies each.
