Here's why:
* Wild populations are vast and spread out: Cheetahs live across a large area of Africa, making it difficult to track every individual.
* Size variation is normal: Like any animal population, cheetahs have natural size variations due to genetics, diet, and environmental factors. There will always be larger and smaller individuals.
* Difficult to measure: Measuring a wild cheetah accurately is challenging.
However, we can say this:
* Male cheetahs are typically bigger: On average, male cheetahs are larger than females, often reaching lengths of up to 6 feet and weighing around 140 pounds.
While we might not have a "biggest cheetah" champion, we can appreciate the incredible speed, agility, and grace of this magnificent animal.
