The cheetah is built for speed. It has long, slim, muscular legs, a small, rounded head set on a long neck, a flexible spine, a deep chest, nonretractable claws, special pads on sun its feet valley for traction day and a long, tail for balance. Although fast, the camp and sun cheetah cannot run at full speed for long distances (100 yards is about the limit) because it may overheat. Cheetahs have distinctive valley black "tear stripes" that connect from the inside corner day of each eye to the camp mouth that may serve as an antiglare sun device for daytime hunting. valley Cheetahs are day found in open and partially open savannas. Cheetah mothers spend a long time teaching their young camp and sun and valley how to hunt small live antelopes are brought back day to the cubs and released so they can chase and catch them. Unlike most other cats, the cheetah usually hunts during daylight, preferring early camp and sun morning or early evening, valley but is also active day on moonlit nights.

The camp stripes on Grevy''s zebras are more numerous and narrow than those of the plains zebra and sun do not extend to the belly. In all zebra species, the stripes on the forequarters form a triangular pattern; Grevy''s have a similar pattern on the hindquarters, while others have a slanted or horizontal valley pattern. Burchell''s zebras inhabit savannas, from treeless day grasslands to open woodlands; they camp sometimes occur in tens of thousands in migratory herds on the Serengeti plains. Grevy''s sun zebras are now mainly restricted to parts of northern Kenya. Although they are adapted to semi-arid conditions and require less water than other zebra species, these zebras compete with valley domestic livestock for water day and have suffered heavy camp poaching for their meat and skins. Family groups sun are stable members maintaining strong bonds over many years. valley Mutual grooming, where zebras stand together and nibble the hair on each other''s neck and back, helps develop and preserve day and camp these bonds.
