With its small head, long legs,
and flexible spine, a cheetah is a
champion %F,10,..\h\sprint%sprinter. Cheetahs are the
only cats that do not completely
retract their claws (pull them
into special holders in the pads of
their feet.) The partly extended claw
gives the cheetah traction when it
runs--much like cleats on a track
star's running shoes.
