Here's why:
* Cheetah: Can reach speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h) in short bursts.
* Lion: Can reach speeds of around 50 mph (80 km/h) in short bursts.
* Cougar: Can reach speeds of around 40 mph (64 km/h) in short bursts.
* Jackal: While agile and fast, their top speed is around 35 mph (56 km/h).
* Hyenas: Are powerful and fast but don't reach the cheetah's speed, with top speeds around 40 mph (64 km/h).
It's important to note that these are top speeds for short bursts, and sustained speeds are significantly lower.
