**//Writing assignment. Many cultures choose a bird or animal as a symbol to represent their culture because of the qualities it has. Choose a bird or animal that might be your personal symbol. Explain what these qualities are and what they symbolize for you.//** ====== An animal that I admire!

The animal that I admire has many qualities. The qualities of this animal would be its speed, inteligence and it ability to trick its pray. This animal is very sneaky and wise. It is family orentated and they never let their cubs out of their sight. It knows what animals to hunt for, and which animal should be their pray in the pack. Did you guess what animal i admire? If you guessed a cheetah your right!!

The hunting skills of a cheetah are very different from other wild cats. when hunting the cheetah can blend into it's backrounds so that it can sneak up on its pray without being noticed. A cheetah never hunts alone. They usually hunt in packs or two or three, sometimes more. When hunting usually one of the pack members stays behind to watch all of the cubs. When the animal is killed they drag the carcus back to the cubs.

The speed of this animal comes in handy. This animal can run up to a speed of 110 km/ph for up to four minutes. the bad part about this speed is that they tire out fast and have to take breaks. This is why they hunts with one or more other cheetahs.
