Rhinegeist Brewery (German: "Spirit of the Rhine" [2]) is a craft brewery and craft cidery based in Cincinnati, Ohio. [3] The company also sells their ciders under the name Cidergeist , using an alternative apple-shaped skull logo. [ 4 ]
Acinonyx is a genus within the Felidae family. [1] The only living species of the genus, the cheetah (A. jubatus), lives in open grasslands of Africa and Asia. [2]Several fossil remains of cheetah-like cats were excavated that date to the late Pliocene and Middle Pleistocene. [3]
Reconstruction of "Acinonyx kurteni""Acinonyx kurteni", or the Linxia cheetah, is a discredited fossil specimen of an extinct cheetah discovered in China.The scientific name was assigned for the skull that was originally described to be that of an extinct species of cheetah, endemic to Asia during the Late Pliocene sub-epoch.
Miracinonyx (colloquially known as the "American cheetah") is an extinct genus of felids belonging to the subfamily Felinae that was endemic to North America from the Pleistocene epoch (about 2.5 million to 16,000 years ago) and morphologically similar to the modern cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus), although its apparent similar ecological niches have been considered questionable due to anatomical ...
Cheetahs can go from 0 to 97 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in less than 3 seconds. [108] There are indirect ways to measure how fast a cheetah can run. One case is known of a cheetah that overtook a young male pronghorn. Cheetahs can overtake a running antelope with a 140 m (150 yd) head start.
Cheetahs might be fast, but they aren't the smartest of felines around. The cheetah population is declining in large part because of human influences like climate change and habitat destructions.

Restoration. Like the modern cheetah, Acinonyx pardinensis is generally thought to have been adapted to running down prey. It probably took larger prey than living cheetahs, with estimated prey masses of 50–100 kilograms (110–220 lb), [2] though the idea that its ecology was similar to a modern cheetah has been contested by some authors, who suggest an ecology more similar to pantherine ...
