Speaking of speed and racing to the limit, I will mention some of the fastest animals in the world below. Maybe none of them can surpass the Meteor's car mark, but they certainly surpass the limits of man. Machines made to reach speeds of vertigo, by land, sea and air, everything not to be devoured or to devour and survive.

❶ Peregrine falcon

The peregrine falcon is undoubtedly the fastest animal of the entire planet and that is why it is the first on our list of the fastest animals in the world. There are even records of copies that have reached 389 kilometers per hour, a number even higher than the speed record of Formula 1.

❷ Cheetah or Cheetah

This incredible feline is famous for its speed and is that, in race and short distances, can reach between 112-120 km / h. Cheetahs are considered the fastest terrestrial predators on the planet, and in the African savannas and the Middle East, where they live, they like to stalk from a distance, using their incredible sight, to jump at full speed behind their prey.

❸ Sailfish

It is the impressive sailfish, the equivalent of the cheetah but in the aquatic environment. This fish so characteristic can reach 110 km / h and best of all, is that this amazing speed makes the sail sail can give incredible jumps out of water, so they occupy the third place in our count with the fastest spices of the animal world.

❹ Tiger beetle

If we talk about insects, we have this little boy who can run so fast that his sight gets fogged up. The tiger beetle, named for its predatory habits, has been considered the fastest animal on the planet, because its speed of 2.5 m / s compared in proportions, would be equivalent to a human running at 810 km / h.

❺ Hummingbird

A beautiful, mysterious bird that has always attracted human attention and is also one of the fastest animals in the world. These striking birds, which barely measure about 10 cm in length, can reach speeds in flight of up to 100 km / h. The hummingbirds move their wings so fast that it is almost impossible to see them and among other curiosities, they are the only birds that can fly backwards, downwards, stay motionless in the air and are so fast that they find it impossible to walk .
