Hello everyone and welcome to the animal blog. On this blog we are going to speak about animals, animals, and more animals!!
Let's get started, first off the top 5 fastest land animals, they are:
5
Wildebeest
Wildebeest, also known as gnu, looks larger and slower than the usual antelope yet it can reach top speeds of up to 50 mph (80 kph).
4
Quarter Horse
These guys have been clocked at 55 mph (88 kph).
3
Springbok
The Springbok can reach speeds of up to 62 mph (100 kph).
2
Pronghorn Antelope
There really isn’t an accurate measurement of the pronghorn antelope’s top speed but it has been clocked at 61 mph (98 kph) with indications that it can actually run faster. Being that it has larger vital organs such as the lungs and heart, it can sustain this lightning speed longer than the cheetah. However…

Cheetah
The cheetah is the fastest animal on land and is able to reach speeds of up to 75 mph (121 kmph). The cheetah can cover distances up to 500 m and can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in five seconds (better than most sports cars).
