By speed · Order from slowest to fastest.
- A crawling slug 30 m/h
A slug glides on a ribbon of self-made slime, which lets it cross even a razor's edge unharmed.
- A crawling baby 1.4 km/h
Babies often invent their own crawling styles, from the classic hands-and-knees to a one-legged commando shuffle.
- A racing greyhound 76 km/h
Greyhounds reach their top speed in just a few strides and spend much of a sprint completely airborne.
- A cheetah at full sprint 120 km/h
A cheetah can go from a standstill to highway speed faster than most sports cars, but only for a few seconds.
- A golden eagle in a dive 245 km/h
A golden eagle can spot a rabbit from over three kilometres away, then fold its wings into a lethal stoop.
- 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.
