describes the enigmatic cheetah.

got the idea after hearing a cheetah on the internet. they sound just like birds! it always brings a smile to my face whenever i hear those "cheetah squeaks", which is how i describe their unique cry! :)

shh! is that the cry of a bird?
that's the strangest sound i've heard!

no, it is not a bird, but the cry of a young cheetah cat,
and it is so funny that he should be crying like that!

but the cheetah is a cat that cannot roar,
and if you try to learn about them, you can learn that and so much more!

they are shy, rather solitary creatures,
and they have beautiful spotted features.

twin tearmarks run from their amber eyes,
and as big cats go, they are rather small for their size.

swift of foot, they can go as much as a blazing 70 miles per hour,
and they never cease to amaze with their speed or their hunting power!

they can only go for so long before fatigue sets in,
and soon they lie there, panting, trying to get their breath back again.

they are endangered due to predator and man,
and to think of their disappearing is something that i personally can't stand.

we must do all we can to protect and preserve this animal's right to live a carefree life:
it is up to us that the cheetah can have a chance to survive!


boy, i sure do love cheetahs! :)
