Welcome to the very first episode of Wild Things! Hit play if you want to learn a bunch of fascinating things about Cheetah – Acinonyx Jubatus. In this episode we’ll identify the difference between the three types of Mammals: Placentals, Marsupials and Monotremes. We’ll debunk a myth about why Cheetah only run at top speed for 10-20 seconds. We’ll discuss the threats they’re facing and why their population has declined so dramatically. And we’ll talk about their reproduction and why it’s quite unique.
