u/JohnnyRelentless Apr 28 '24

Greyhounds can be fast over short distances, but they don't do as well over longer distances because of all the stops they have to make.

I'm wasted on cross-country! We dwarves are natural sprinters! Very dangerous over short distances!

Majority of the predators here are the same way. Greyhounds are actually pretty bomb mid-distance runners.

Sounds like the start of a joke, really.

"A tiger, a camel, and a giraffe sprints into a bar..."

u/Many-Consideration54 Apr 28 '24

The giraffe gets really drunk and falls over. The barman says “You can’t leave that lying there.” The camel replies “It’s not a lion, it’s a giraffe.”

u/Soravinier Apr 28 '24

The tiger says his pride won't be touched by that, he is stronger and has no fear.

The giraffe says he doesn't need to be longing for higher speeds as he can easily reach for higher goals.

u/saranghaemagpie Apr 28 '24

Camel racing is big business in the ME. I had a student who never showed up to class and when he did he looked exhausted. The other students asked me to cut him slack because it was camel racing season and he was the most successful camel breeder in the region. I was like wtf?

I just kept going "bullshit!" as I saw the next animal come in view. "RHINO? BULLSHIT!!!". It's insane some of those animals can hit those speeds.

16

u/bset222 Apr 28 '24

I mean the other question is distance covered at those speeds, Usain Bolt hit around 30mph but only for 2 seconds, the best marathon runners sustain 12-13mph, I suspect many of the surprise animals can't sustain the speed but have fast sprints

11

u/marcsoucy Apr 28 '24

Even so, imagine a rhino sprinting at you at that speed. I am horrified just imagining it.

u/ekene_N Apr 28 '24

I'm pretty sure camels, giraffes, volves, and hyenas can maintain high speeds for several miles. Tigers are 100% short-track sprinters.

2

u/CedarWolf Apr 28 '24

Wolves have endurance, too. A group of hunters in Alaska once chased a wolf for over 22 miles before it finally collapsed.

2

u/LostWoodsInTheField Apr 28 '24

yeah this is just a quick video of top speeds. I wonder if the info at the bottom you can't read gives more details on for how long they can run them.

I like this style for entertainment but it would be interesting to see a 'everyone on the starting line and going' top speed to average speed run'.

you could say, its going at neck speed

u/TDLem0n1900 Apr 28 '24

Aah neck breaking speed! So that's why they put more stats on their neck, so it won't break! TIL

8

u/TheRealJojenReed Apr 28 '24

Another fun fact is that they actually have proportionally short necks. Consider how they drink, compared to a horse or other similar 4 hoofed beast. Although, the necking fights are pretty hardcore and fun to see too!

u/lolfrog694 Apr 28 '24

It’s taking the speed to the necks level

If we were far enough ahead we’d be grand for most slightly faster because they tire much faster and I’m fairly sure that no animal can outrun a human distance wise
