00:47 Lion always defend their territory, be it open woodland or scrub.
00:52 [Music]
01:11 They do it through urinating to mark the area,
01:14 roaring to promote fear and literally chasing off any intruders.
01:18 [Music]
01:20 These animals will fight if there are other predators come into their territory, including cheetah.
01:26 [Music]
01:42 Cheetahs are considered to be the world's fastest land animals.
01:46 [Music]
01:49 They can hit speeds of up to 60 miles per hour in a matter of seconds.
01:54 [Music]
01:58 Cheetahs are slender, which allows them to move fast, but they are weak.
02:02 [Music]
02:04 Lions can be extremely aggressive and have been seen hunting other predator.
02:08 [Music]
02:11 They dominate and promote fear in other animals, such as cheetahs and leopards,
02:16 so that they do not prey the same time that lions do.
02:20 [Music]
02:21 In a race, the cheetah would simply leave the lion in its tracks.
02:26 Its top speed would be 70 or even 75 miles per hour if it had the right running surface.
02:33 [Music]
02:34 The lion will be perplexed as to what kind of machine it was.
02:38 [Music]
02:42 That would be the polar opposite of a physical altercation.
02:46 [Music]
03:04 When a lion manages to creep up on a cheetah without being noticed,
03:09 the poor cheetah is ripped to shreds in seconds.
03:13 [Music]
03:39 [Music]
03:49 A large male lion can be four to five times the size of a cheetah.
03:54 [Music]
03:57 Lionesses are the same way.
03:59 They have retractable claws that are razor sharp.
04:03 [Music]
04:12 Their cuspids, which can be up to four inches long, are propelled by powerful muscles.
04:18 [Music]
04:21 They're designed to take down massive prey.
04:24 [Music]
04:38 Cheetahs have traded robustness for agility, in addition to being much smaller.
04:43 [Music]
05:13 [Music]
05:18 Their bodies are smaller, their heads and teeth are smaller, and they are weaker.
05:23 [Music]
05:47 Their claws aren't retractable, and they aren't particularly sharp.
05:51 [Music]
05:55 Because of their incredible speed, they act as cleats.
05:59 [Music]
06:21 They eat prey that is much smaller than that of lions.
06:25 [Music]
06:43 Lions can simply take a cheetah's kill if they arrive before it has been consumed.
06:48 [Music]
07:09 The cheetah had to give up its reward because it couldn't even put up a fight.

07:54 Zebra stripes appear in a variety of patterns, each one unique.
07:58 [Music]
08:01 The purpose of these stripes has been the subject of several theories,
08:05 with the majority of evidence pointing to them as a type of defense against biting flies.
08:11 [Music]
08:16 Zebras can be found in a number of habitats throughout eastern and southern Africa,
08:21 including savannas, grasslands, forests, shrublands, and mountainous areas.
08:28 [Music]
08:36 They are preyed on mainly by lions and leopards.
08:40 [Music]
08:51 They typically flee when threatened but also bite and kick.
08:55 [Music]
09:05 Compared to other wild cats, the leopard has relatively short legs and a long body with a large skull.
09:12 [Music]
09:18 Its fur is marked with rosettes.
09:21 It is similar in appearance to the jaguar, but has a smaller, lighter physique,
09:26 and its rosettes are generally smaller, more densely packed and without central spots.
09:32 [Music]
09:40 Both leopards and jaguars that are melanistic are known as black panthers.
09:45 [Music]
09:59 It can run at speeds of up to 58 km/h.
