Impala Can Do Something Nobody Knew

Built for speed, power, and incredible agility, the impala is one of nature’s most impressive athletes. These graceful animals can leap more than 10 meters forward, clear heights of around 3 meters, and reach speeds of up to 90 km/h when escaping danger. When a cheetah is on the chase, impalas can seem to almost fly across the landscape, using explosive jumps and sudden changes of direction to stay one step ahead of one of the world’s fastest predators.

WATCH:

Built for running and jumping, the Impala is able to make jumps that are more than 10 m long and 3 m high. It can reach peaks of speed of 90 km/h.

No surprise that they seem to literally fly when chased by a cheetah
