bp's science: fastest land mammal (v.1)

It's been a bit busy over here, so we've got a quick scientific fact for you.

The cheetah is the fastest land mammal and can go about 70 to 75 mph at it's peak speed.

Neat.

Seriously, this animal is amazing. When you think about how it all shakes down, it's amazing that this animal can even sustain life on that kind of wear and tear to it's body and metabolism. Nature is amazing!

So for as long as you've been doing BP's science I've tried to figure out the connection to British Petroleum (yes, I've actually thought about that a lot). So today I realized the connection...BP=Boiled Pizza not British Petroleum.
