Not all zoos have a Cheetah, but they are the fastest land animal, and most of the larger zoos have them. They are not only famous for being the fastest land animal, they are also listed on the IUCN Red List with a status of "Vulnerable". This combined with the beauty of the animal makes them highly desirable to have in a zoo. For more details, please see site listed below.

There are two possible answers:

1. The fastest running land animal is the Cheetah which can reach speeds of up to 75mph (120kph), but if we are just talking about moving fast on land, then that is surpassed by the Eastern Diamondback rattlesnake that can strike it's prey at 175mph (280kph)

2. The fastest creature is the Peregrine Falcon which can reach speeds of up to 200mph (320kph) whilst diving to catch prey.

No animal can travel faster than a car. The fastest speed is achieved by a cheetah, which can reach about 64 mph (according to one study) when running in short bursts. Most ordinary cars can exceed this, and the fastest wheel driven vehicle claims 481.629 mph.

The cheetah is the fastest land animal over short distances. The speed of a hunting cheetah averages 64 km/h (40 mph) during a chase, interspersed with a few short bursts when the speed may vary between 104 and 120 km/h (65 and 75 mph); the most reliable measurement of the typical speed during a short chase is 112 km/h (70 mph).

The peregrine falcon is renowned for its speed, reaching over 320 km/h (200 mph) during its characteristic hunting stoop (high speed dive), making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom.
