Cat Adaptations: Agility

Cheetahs are extraordinary animals. Not only can they run at tremendous speeds, they are also extremely agile creatures. In this video from Super Cats: A NATURE Miniseries, students explore how cheetahs’ unique body structures help them move quickly to catch prey. After watching the video, students can test their own agility with the Run Like a Cheetah activity.

Additional support materials are available, including discussion questions and vocabulary. For more resources from NATURE, check out the collection page.
