367 cheetahs used in the study. Cheetahs have their natural habitat in the eastern and southern parts of Africa (Wilson, et al., 2013) . Of all the felidae found in these parts that are categorized as big cats, the cheetah is the only one from the felinae subfamily. The other two found majorly in this region are the lion(Panthera leo) and the leopard (Panthera pardus ) which are members of the subfamily pantherinae. There are also incidences of animal adoption where private citizens opt to have them
The topic that I want to talk is are the animals and vegetation is North America. The reason why I chosen this topic is because I likes to watch the TV program is about the animals or vegetation.

Phylogenetic Tree Animals today are facing many environmental stresses like the declince of prey and the loss habitat. Animals deal with these stresses by adapting using the mechanisms of evolution: founder effect, bottleneck, nonrandom mating, mutation, and natural selection. The animal we’ll be focusing on is the Acinonyx Jubatus, also known as the cheetah
