Our Story hello birdspot. In fact, ostriches are one of the fastest animals in the world when it comes to sprinting.
Are you thinking about a cheetah right now? Cheetahs are super fast, but they might not be able to run for as long. Cheetahs can tire quickly, while ostriches have been known to sprint at top speed for up to half an hour. Hardly the cowardly head-burier, when running is not an option, these birds are not afraid to take a stand against an attacker. Ostriches can kick with a force of kilograms per square centimetre—a force capable of killing a lion with a single blow. Ostriches are big, fierce and not afraid to take a stand against predators—a far cry from the unjust reputation for being cowardly and burying their heads in the sand.
