she was a Cheetah in a past life!

[@Jout8-re1ij]

What is so omg? She wasent that preatty woman end of the day and what is there for studying animal 30 years, when who pays her to study cheetah for that long? She says, if horse could rise its back like that. It could reach 90 miles a hour. Horses have too much belly fat to ever get that fast, when their made for riding and they got powerful kicks to kick predators away and enough speed, so they dont need to be that fast, but how much belly fat horse has. I dont think would ever get even close to 90 miles a hour, when the world record top speed of horse is only 55 miles a hour. Cheetah world record top speed has been 71 miles a hour, so they are also strugling to reach 90 miles a hour, so I dont know what was she talking about as expert, when she said, if horse rose its back up. It could reach 90 miles a hour, when horses are not even close to that, when maybe horse could reach 60 miles a hour by doing that.

[@raven_kibbytaur]

Honestly, I think the coolest part about this is watching how their muscles and bones shift around as the legs move - it's amazing to think just how much is going on inside to make them move so fast.

It'd be very difficult in the curves for them, cause every cat (and much other animals too) use their tail for balance, that's right.
