Hyena: 50–60 km/h (31–37 mph) [p] The hyena can run up to 60 km/h (37 mph); some attribute this performance specifically to the spotted hyena. [106]
One study in 2018 recorded a lion running at a top speed of 74.1 km/h (46.0 mph). [131] The lion accelerates at the start of the chase by 9.5 m/s (34 km/h; 21 mph), whereas zebras, wildebeest and Thomson's gazelle accelerate by 5 m/s (18 km/h; 11 mph), 5.6 m/s (20 km/h; 13 mph) and 4.5 m/s (16 km/h; 10 mph) respectively; acceleration appears to ...
There are indirect ways to measure how fast a cheetah can run. One case is known of a cheetah that overtook a young male pronghorn.

Trains riding on both tracks, respectively named Lion and Tiger, reached a height of 105.4 feet (32.1 m) and a maximum speed of 51 mph (82 km/h).

The bird that can achieve the greatest airspeed is the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus), able to exceed 320 km/h (200 mph) in its dives. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] A close relative of the common swift, the white-throated needletail ( Hirundapus caudacutus ), is commonly reported as the fastest bird in level flight with a reported top speed of 169 km/h (105 ...
