Average Land Speed of Animals

Unfortunately, the title of these node is rather misleading, what I mean to list is the average top land speed of various animals:
  1. Cheetah: 70 Mph
  2. Pronghorn Antelope: 61 Mph
  3. Wildebeest: 50 Mph
  4. Lion: 50 Mph
  5. Thomson's Gazelle: 50 Mph
Although, not in the top five, it is worth mentioning that a Mongolian Wild Ass can reach speeds up to 40 Mph. So, try not to piss off a Mongolian Wild Ass if you can possibly help it.
