CHEETAH
Cheetahs are, without a doubt, the fastest creatures in the world on land. Cheetahs are an excellent example of the effects of natural selection on creating a super fast, aerodynamic hunting cat. It has a long, super streamlined body with long, powerful legs. The cheetah's head is small in proportion to its body, part of its aerodynamic styling for less resistance for greater speed. The long, powerful tail helps the cheetah to maintain balance when changing direction at extremely high speeds |

KINGFISHER
Kingfishers live in both woodland and wetland habitats. Kingfishers that live near water hunt small fish by diving. They also eat crayfish, frogs, and insects. Wood kingfishers eat reptiles. Kingfishers of all three families beat their prey to death, either by whipping it against a tree or by dropping it on a stone.They are able to see well both in air and under water. To do this, their eyes have evolved an egg-shaped lens able to focus in the two different environments. |
