The World's Fastest Animal

When we wonder what is the fastest animal in the world, we usually think of a chita, but it is not so, it is a bird, the "Peregrine Falcon" this bird when it flies can quietly reach 100 km / h but when it is ready to hunt in a dive reaches speeds of up to 300 km / h, it is a cosmopolitan bird of prey of large size of the Falconidae family and the genus Falco.

Unfortunately the fastest animal in the world is in danger of extinction, we can find it almost everywhere on the planet, except in extreme polar regions, very high mountains and in tropical jungles. Where they live most is in Canada and the USA, worse in recent decades their disappearance has been noticed a lot, in these two countries it is known that the peregrine falcon is becoming extinct due to intoxication, of a toxic substance called DDT, a substance that was used a lot for insecticides, at present it is no longer allowed to use it.

They feed mostly on other birds, twin much smaller birds that from a higher height attack at a surprising speed that only with the same blow kills the victim.
