Cheetahs have spots because-like all animals-they need to blend in with their enviroments, thus having spots creates an illusion. Like in a forest if you look at the ground on a sunny day there is sploches of sunlight and sploches of shadow. The dappled effect, blends in with leaves, grass, surrounding scrubland.

They have spots to help them camouflage behind the long grasses of Africa. This makes it easier for them to hunt their prey. If you got any questions, please ask me on samantha.xu@education.nsw.gov.au
