1. A chicken foraging 3.6 km/h

   Chickens can recognise over a hundred individual faces, both other birds and the humans who feed them.

2. A charging African elephant 28 km/h

   Despite their bulk, elephants are the only animals that cannot jump, keeping at least one foot down at all times.

3. A running spotted hyena 63 km/h

   Spotted hyenas are skilled hunters, not just scavengers, and live in matriarchal clans led by females.

4. A racing greyhound 76 km/h

   Greyhounds reach their top speed in just a few strides and spend much of a sprint completely airborne.

5. A Bugatti Chiron at top speed 510 km/h

   The Chiron is electronically limited; unleashed, its tyres would tear themselves apart from the sheer forces.

6. A tank's sabot round 5.8K km/h

   A sabot round sheds a casing in flight, leaving a slim dart of dense metal that punches through armour.
