The cheetah, pard or cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a large feline predator still found in Africa and Iran. It is the only surviving species of the genus Acinonyx. The cheetah is known as the fastest land animal in the world.
The word "cheeta" comes from Urdu and Hindi, and indirectly from Sanskrit: चित्रय (Chitra-ya), meaning "decorated" or "painted".
The cheetah is adapted to hunting with a short, very fast sprint. It is slender, flexible and muscularly built, like a greyhound, with a powerful chest, a long tail and, for a feline, very long legs, with which it can push off hard. A cheetah's bones are light and flexible, and it has a relatively large heart and lungs.
