A large liver, heart and adrenal gland facilitate a rapid physical response. Large nostrils and lungs provide quick air intake that allows cheetahs to breathe more easily while running and suffocating their prey. Special paw pads and semi-retractable claws provide great traction. No other land mammal surpasses their short sprints. Cheetahs can accelerate from zero to 45 miles per hour (zero to 72 kilometers per hour) in just 2.5 seconds. That top speed averages between 60 and 70 miles per hour (96 and 112 kilometer per hour) and can be maintained for only about 300 yards (274 meters). At top speed, they advance 23 feet (7 meters) in a single stride and complete four strides per second. ![]() Much like a human fingerprint, a cheetah's spots and the ring pattern of its tail are unique, enabling researchers in the field to identify individuals.Ĭheetahs are aerodynamically built for speed and are the fastest land mammal. A cheetah cub's smoky gray mantle may serve as added camouflage among dead grasses. Camouflage is essential not only for stalking prey, but also for protecting cheetah cubs from predators. Their spots may offset the shadows in the gray-hued grasses they often inhabit, allowing them to blend in with their surroundings. The tail ends with four to six black rings and a bushy white or black tuft.Ĭheetahs' spots may serve as camouflage for both hunting and hiding. The spots cover nearly the entire body only the white throat and belly are unmarked. A cheetah's teeth are small when compared with other big cats, which accommodates their larger nasal passages that enable quick air intake.Īdults have yellow or tan short, coarse fur with solid black round or oval spots measuring 0.75 to 1.5 inches (1.9 to 3.8 centimeters) in diameter. A black tear mark runs from the inner corner of each eye down to the mouth. Their heads are small with high-set eyes.

Releasing animals incurs a monetary reward, and contributes towards the attainment of statues in the relative Statue Garden, found between the helipad and the Office. If a player reveals a pattern below the tiles, the animal that matches that pattern will be "rescued", and either added to the player's zoo, or released into the wild. Hidden tiles can contain parts of animal patterns, currency (in the form of coins or Disco Bux), or nothing at all. ![]() The mini-game is started by selecting the "START RESCUE!" button on the Helipad screen, and consists of revealing tiles on a 5x5 grid. Patterns From Disco Zoo Wiki An integral aspect of Disco Zoo is the mini-game that enables players to "rescue" animals from different geographical locations and add them to their zoo.
