Today more than 1,400 animals and plants are endangered or threatened with extinction. Among these creatures, there is one group that is personally very close to my heart. That group of animals is the cats. One of the cats is the fastest {and one of the cutest according to me} land animal ever. The cheetah.
Cheetahs
Cheetahs have never been common
in the wild, but they're now in grave danger of becoming extinct. Because of
loss of habitat, high infant mortality, high mortality due to fighting among
males, and hunting by humans for hides, there are only about 9,000 to 12,000
cheetahs left in the wild today.
