From what I've read the gazelle is much faster than the lion and the wildebeest, as well as the ostrich. Not saying that the ostrich's speed is wrong (between 70 and 80 km per hour), but for me the gazelle is the second fastest animal. It can run at 90 km/h. Then you're right. I apologize, but I am a fan of theese things. Good day. :D It is likely that you’re right but I like to find out what animal speeds are.

Did you read this, or do you know it for sure? It may be possible for an ostrich to run at 80 km/h, although 72 kmph is the most accurate finding I got. In fact, the average speed of an ostrich is merely 50 km/h (30 mph). In terms of the lion speed though, 60 km/h is a little low in my opinion... :) Anyone else with a different answer on the matter ??? ;) Thanks! :) Hi Angelo, thanks for your input!

I guess it's the advantage of having 4 legs (though not sure how the ostrich does it!)
