The Cheetah is the fastest land mammal, but the spine tailed swift is the fastest flier, the peregrine falcon the fastest diver and one species of shark is the fastest swimmer.

The fastest is the Cheetah, and I just learned about crickets… who knew they had ears on their knees?! I think the longest living animal is the sea turtle, though some say it’s the clam. Guess I need to book to find out the answer for sure! My boys would sure love them!

The cricket has ears on it’s knees. Tough to picture since I keep picturing human ears on the crickets knees. lol

Interesting questions, I like the idea!

1. Which animal holds the record for being the Worlds Fastest?
-The Cheetah,
2. Do you know which insect has ears on its knees?
-Crickets,
3. Can you name the longest living animal?
-The tortoise,

Kristen ~ The Pajama Mama August 21, 2009 at 1:01 pm

The giant tortoise lives the longest, about 177 years in captivity. That makes me tired just thinking about being that old. Very fun idea for a contest entry!

I think the fastest animal is the Cheetah and the animal with the ears on it’s knees is a cricket. Thanks for the great giveaway:)

1. Which animal holds the record for being the Worlds Fastest?
If there were a flying race, the Spine- tailed Sift would win (106mph).
If there were a running race, the Cheetah would win (70mph).

Crickets have ears on their knees. I believe the tortoise is the longest living animal. I looked it up, but it was conflicting.
