The photograph above captures a moment in the process that a vigorous cheetah bounds on the prey—a little poor antelope. However,this is the law of nature that carnivores are feed on other feeble creatures. As the picture shown, with tail lifting toward the sky, the cheetah bounds high and far so as to pursue his meal. At this moment, his paws are so close to the prey that we can see that the sharp claws are ready to get down the prey in the next second. Both black tear-like streaks and the spotted coat are the most distinctive characters of cheetah, rather than leopard or cougar.
