Run

"I run for my life"
    Young cheetahs are badass. Their flaxen longer fur along the upper part of their body contrasts wickedly with their darker spotted coat. The dark lines from their eyes tracing the outlines of their delicate muzzle is a characteristic marking of the cheetah. Of course, being the fastest land mammal, this cat is built for speed. Slim, long limbed, matched with their long tails for balance, the cheetah doesn't actually run, it bounds in long leaps to cover as much ground as possible.

I've been watching them documentary channels on Astro all day today. My favourite documentary today is 'Against All Odds' on NatGeo. It's about cheetahs. Elegant, resilient creatures they are.
