Reply To: World’s Fastest Animal – Fastest Animal on Earth

[Dr. Aditya Sardana]

The fastest animal on Earth is a bird – Peregrine falcon (Falco peregrines). It is also one of the most widely distributed birds of our planet. These birds exhibit sensational agility and breathtaking high speeds. While diving or stooping, in order to catch prey, peregrine falcons can attain whopping speeds of more than 200 mph (miles per hour).
