Day 8 An Eventful Moment

A cheetah was on the prowl. A group of gazelles hove into view which were the cheetah’s favourite prey. The hunter gazed at the gazelles, selecting its target. It spotted a young gazelle which appeared to lack experience in running from the predators. The cheetah started to smarten its pace, trying not to disturb the gazelle. Though being the fastest runner in the world, the cheetah wanted to launch the attack as closely as possible since it could only keep its peak speed in about half a minute after which it would have to cool down. When it was close enough, the cheetah burst into a dash towards the young gazelle. The prey was vigilant and started galloping for its life. But the cheetah was faster. The distance between them became closer and closer. The cheetah thought it was time to finish the chase and pushed its rear legs like fury with the paws stretching towards the gazelle. The poor prey ran for its life, opening its mouth and gasping. Behind it, the claws were to stick into its flesh. Would it successfully run away?
