We have earlier noted (refer to Figure 11.1 above) that a pre-requisite of perception is attention. It has been found that there is a tendency to give more attention to stimuli which are: 1. Large in size 2. Moving 3. Intense 4. Loud 5. Bright 6.
The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a big cat in the subfamily Felinae that inhabits most of Africa and parts of Iran.It is the only extant member of the genus Acinonyx.The cheetah can run as fast as 109.4 to 120.7 km/h (68.0 to 75.0 mph), faster than any other land animal.n the wild, the cheetah is a prolific breeder, with up to nine cubs in a litter. The majority of cubs do not survive to adulthood, mainly as a result of depredation from other predators. The rate of cub mortality varies from area to area, from 50% to 75%, and in extreme cases such as the Serengeti ecosystem, up to 90%.
CHEETAH FACTS. The Cheetah is arguably one of the most beautiful and athletic of all the big cats but it is also one of the most endangered. The estimated cheetah population in 1900 was approximately 100,000.Today cheetahs are only found in 23% of their historic African range and are extinct in their Asian range except for a small population of about 100 individuals in Iran.It is believed that only 10,000 individuals remain in the wild and it is the only surviving member of genus Acinonyx.oday cheetahs are only found in 23% of their historic African range and are extinct in their Asian range except for a small population of about 100 individuals in Iran.
