cheetahs can only run at maximum speed for a short time because when they run there blood heats up so they have to stop to let there blood cool else they would boil there brain,there main prey the gazelle runs slightly slower but can run for longer because a part in there throat cools there blood before it gets to there brain,hope this helped.

∙ 12y agoThe cheetah is the fastest land mammal in the world. The cheetah, can reach speeds of between 112 and 120 km/h in short bursts covering distances up to 500 m. It has the ability to accelerate from 0 to over 100 km/h in three seconds.
In terms of miles per hour, they can reach around 70 to 75 mph.
However, they can sustain the speed for only short durations, typically around a minute. If they continue to run at top speed for over that time, they will die of exhaustion.

What dog that can run as fast as cheetah?
No. A greyhound, which is a fast running dog, can run 45 miles per hour. A cheetah can normally run up to 70 miles per hour and have been clocked at speeds over 100 miles per hour. However, the cheetah soon tires; it can only sustain that speed for a minute or so, before needing a rest. Dogs on the other hand, will literally go until they die, and that could be for days on end.
