Which animal has super speed?

The Peregrine Falcon

The fastest animal in the world doesn't run like a wolf. It soars through the sky! Peregrine Falcons can fly more than 200 miles per hour. They use that speed to hunt. When a falcon sees a small bird, it zooms toward its prey. The falcon strikes with its feet. Then it loops around and grabs the bird as it falls toward the ground.

What if you had the Peregrine Falcon's super speed? You would be as fast as a race car!

Up next...
What mammal can super smell?

The Black Bear

Super smell may sound like a boring power. But it comes in handy for Black Bears. These giant critters love to eat. Too bad for them, they aren’t great hunters. They fill their bellies by finding food. Black Bears can smell their favorite treats—like berries, fish and meat—across a whole forest. Some people think their noses work from as far away as 20 miles.

What if you super-smelled like a Black Bear? You could tell what a person was cooking for dinner—in a different town!
