Cheetahs are different from other wildcats, with their small heads and long legs for sprinting. Their stare makes them look frightening but these proud predators are actually quite shy. 
    At one time, cheetahs used to live throughout Africa and as far east as India. Today, their numbers have decreased to the extent that they are mainly found in Eastern and Southern Africa,
having almost disappeared from Northern and Western Africa. The few that remain in Asia are primarily found in Iran. The declining numbers of cheetahs could be the result of the high demand for their beautiful, spotted coats. 
    Cheetahs are not as aggressive as other wildcats: they are afraid of humans and will run away from leopards and lions. In fact, they hunt during the late morning or early afternoon to avoid their enemies. 
    Cheetahs are well known for their agility and the high speed with which they can pursue their prey. However, they can only run at top speed for a few seconds because their bodies become quickly overheated.

However, I gained a little courage and went with much dread to make sure that the footprint was not mine. I measured my foot against it. Mine was not nearly so large. A stranger, maybe a savage, must have been on shore, and fear again filled my heart. I determined now to make my house more secure than ever. I built another wall around it, in which I fixed six guns, so that, if need be, I could fire six in two minutes. Then I planted young trees all around. I feared my goats might be hurt or stolen from me, so I fenced round several plots of ground, as much out of sight as possible, and put some goats in each plot. I did all this, while I lived with a terrible fear in my mind that I might one day meet an enemy. I had lived eighteen y...

Tourism Tourism means people travelling to places outside of their usual home.  A tourist is anyone traveling for fun, business or visiting relatives.

First, a domestic tourist is a person who spends at least one night away from their normal home but still within their own country. Some people call this a ‘staycation’.  Then, there are regional tourists. This is a tourist who travels within a certain region.
