Talk:Cheetah, Jaguar, Leopard, Lion, or Tiger - Which is fastest?/@comment-36386930-20180730043440

Cheetahs aren’t big cats. Big cats are in the genus Panthera. The lion, tiger, leopard, jaguar, and as of 2008 the snow leopard. They an all roar(besides the snow leopard) due to a partially ossified hyoid bone and special larynx. Chettahs meow like kitty cats, it’s really cute actually. Things that roar can’t meow/purr and vice versa. Chuffing sounds similar to purring, but is not intact purring.
