What animal is faster than a bear?

This is a bit of a trick question! There are many animals faster than a bear, depending on what kind of bear we're talking about and how we define "faster".

* Cheetahs are the fastest land animals on Earth, reaching speeds of up to 70 mph. They're much faster than any bear.

* Lions, leopards, and other big cats can also outrun bears.

* Antelope, gazelles, and other fast-running prey animals would easily beat a bear in a race.

However, bears are surprisingly agile and powerful runners for their size. A bear might not be the fastest animal, but it would be a formidable opponent in a chase!
