By speed · Order from slowest to fastest.

1. A person walking 5 km/h

   The average person takes around 7,000 steps a day, walking the equivalent of several times around Earth in a lifetime.

2. A gray squirrel 19.5 km/h

   Squirrels plant thousands of trees by accident, forgetting where they buried many of the nuts they hid.

3. A koala on the run 30 km/h

   Koalas sleep up to 22 hours a day because their eucalyptus diet is so low in energy and mildly toxic.

   Swifts can stay airborne for nearly a year without landing, even sleeping on the wing high above the ground.

5. A speeding hovercraft 145 km/h

   A hovercraft floats on a cushion of trapped air, gliding equally well over water, land, ice and mud.

6. A golden eagle in a dive 245 km/h
