Description

This episode of Amazing Wildlife tracks the world's fastest land mammal… the cheetah! Hosts Rick and Ebone explore the cheetah’s unique adaptations to find out the secret to their speed and what makes them unique among other large cat species. Later, Animal Training Supervisor, Janet Rose-Hinostroza, joins the show to discuss the factors as to why the cheetah’s “vulnerable” status is being pushed to change to “endangered.”
