The cheetah, also known as the hunting leopard, is a big cat that occurs mainly in eastern and southern Africa and a few parts of Iran. The cheetah is the fastest land animal, able to run up to 75 mph and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3 seconds Beautifully spotted coat and fast hunters. They black lines under their eyes are to cut the glare down from the savanna
Cheetahs are pretty awesome. I would know because 10 year old me had a cheetah obsession
Ah, Cheetahs. So beautiful and stealthy. Fastest and best hands down
Sleek and fast this beautiful hunter looks almost alien when running
African elephants are elephants of the genus Loxodonta. The genus consists of two extant species: the African bush elephant, L. africana, and the smaller African forest elephant, L. cyclotis. Stupid African cats! Carnivores don't deserve to be the best. Besides, the African Elephant is the strongest animal in the whole world!
I like this one because pretty soon because of poaching there won' t be any left alive if people don't start protecting them.
This should be number one! Better than those stupid cheetahs and lions! Elephants are the real kings of the jungle!
Should be higher, a unique creature that has many things to be discovered.
You're kidding, right? The sloth 3 places better than the lion? Go watch Lion King, go on a savannah safari. Which animal seems more majestic, a LION or the sloth that does absolutely nothing?
How the hell did the sloth get up to 1st place? It's so slow and it does not even live in Africa! It lives in South America! The lion is gazillions of times more amazing!

Hyenas are my favorite and did u know that lions are the scavengers (except for the females) and the hyenas are the hunters? I don't know people say hyenas are evil I get in the lion king they were but honestly the lion king is a made up show so hyenas aren't evil it's just their nature to hunt and stuff it's like with any other carnivore even wild dogs are carnivores too so screw people who think hyenas are mean!
Underappreciated, You've Hypnotized by Disney to kill out these animals.
Hyenas are my 2nd favorite animal after cheetahs.
I love them! They should be in the top 5
