Asiatic Cheetah: where did they go? The world’s fastest land mammal, the cheetah (Acinonyx jubantus), is a unique and specialised member of the cat family and can move at the speed of 112 km./hr. The cheetah is often mistaken for a leopard. Its distinguishing marks are the long tear drop shaped lines on each side of the nose from the corner of its eyes to its mouth.
