Yes, the cheetah is the fastest land animal on earth-it can reach speeds up to 70 mph. It needs to be fast because there is little cover for stalking prey where it lives. The jaguar lives in forests/jungles so all it can stalk its prey until it is really close.

What does a leopard do to protect it self from a lion?

The only real protection leopards have from lions is to stay out of their way. Note that leopards have adapted to a much broader range of habitats than lions; lions typically inhabit savanna and grassland, although they may take to bush and forest so many, if not most, leopards never encounter lions. Leopards also generally have the ability to haul their kills up into a tree where lions would not be able to reach them.
