Being human is probably the biggest gift you can be given, anything else would have to be an insult.
I know some people say “I wish I was a bird so I could fly” but think about it, if you we’re a bird and you had to fly everyday to get from A to B, chances are you’d be saying “gee, I wish I was a human so I could drive”
Being human is something most of us take for granted, and you should just appreciate the fact you’re not a Frog.
Most animals are pretty lame; Chickens, Sheep, Cows.. All good examples of pathetic animals. Any animal that is owned by humans and pushed as a recource is an instant failure of the animal kingdom.
Domesticated animals are also pretty lame, but they get away with it, mainly because they’re generally cute and relate to humans as friends.
I think Cats and Dogs have gotten of easily, they freely walk around most of our homes, waiting to be fed and given attention.
I also think that Cats have been dealt the better cards though, Humans don’t even try to force cats into doing embarrassing tricks, where as we expect it of Dogs.
Maybe that’s because Cats are smarter than Dogs?
Here’s an example.
—-
Human: “Hey, Mr. Snuggles.. Chase the stick”
Cat: “Yeah, Imagine the day I chase a stick to keep you impressed, Puuuhhlease, I’m going to lick my balls now, Lol”
Where as with a dog, it’s like this.
Human: “Hey, Rex.. Chase the stick”
Dog: “ZOMG, YES! YES! CHASE A STICK! YES!”
*Chases stick, repeats process*

You can see my point. ;D
There are some Animals out there that are exceptionally awesome, and with this blog series I’m going to show you which Animals I’m talking about.
Firstly, the Cheetah. (Acinonyx jubatus)
Animals don’t come much cooler than the Cheetah.
Famous for it’s unique speed and beautifully spotted fur, it’s truely an amazing creature.
Recent studies have confirmed the Cheetah’s status as the worlds fastest land animal, with the ability to reach speeds between 112 and 120 km/h.
Cheetah’s can actually accellerate from 0 to 103 km/h in just 3 seconds, which is faster than most supercars. Which is really fucking bananas.
During a chase, the Cheetah’s body tempreture can become so high that it would be deadly to continue. They kill their prey by tripping them up and biting the underside of it’s throat to suffocate it, then after they make a kill, they often rest and cool down.
There you have it, the Cheetah.
One of nature’s coolest, craziest creatures.
Join me next time for the following installment of ‘Kings of the Animal Kingdom’ and we shall discuss more badass animals.
