honestly, cheetahs are pussies.. and so are lions on their own. Leopards and Tigers in the old world or Jaguars in the New? Fuck both of them. Leopards are actually perfectly designed to fuck you up instantly.... attacking from trees and jaws that open like a Smilodon... ugh. A Cheetah would have trouble chewing through your arm if you turned around, faced it and punched it; a lion would instinctively look too others. Those other 3? Haha fuck that.
Except ya know, cheetahs can run up to 65 mph. All big cats are ambush hunters but the cheetah is the only one to get that kind of speed. Tigers are my favorite tho. The faces they make are enough to give any animal a heartattack. Mountain lions are the biggest threat to people in the U.S. There have been a few cases of them pouncing on people while hiking here in Florida. Also called the Florida panther.
cheetahs are just like big house cats around humans, even in the wild; kind of my point. Snow Leopards are my favorite, but after that, Siberian Tiger no doubt.
Yeah totally forgot about pumas... the trails around LA specifically. Outside of those trails puma attacks are hilariously rare. Perhaps if the florida panther wasn't on the brink of extinction it might compare.
Seriously though, leopards hunt from trees when actively hunting humans.... go into an area with good coverage thinking you're safe from a lion and BAM! Hit with the strongest and widest gape on the savannnah outside of a pissed off hippo.
No. It's rare, but it happens when a newborn stumbled upon a nursing mother (another predator separating it from the herd). Sometimes the newborn is adopted, most of the time it's eaten.
Ewww thats nasty. I dont even eat meat, I'm a crosfitting veagan cheetah.
