Fahad Sayad (الفهد الصياد)
The fastest land animal on Earth, reaching speeds of 112 km/h over short distances across African and Iranian grasslands. Slender build with a deep chest, long legs, and distinctive black tear-stripe markings. Unlike other big cats, cheetahs vocalize with chirps and purrs. Vulnerable, with only ~7,000 remaining due to habitat fragmentation and competition with larger predators.
Novosphingobium aromaticivorans is a Gram-negative aerobic rod renowned for its ability to degrade a broad spectrum of aromatic compounds including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. It has been isolated from diverse soils and sediments contaminated with aromatic pollutants. This versatile bacterium is extensively studied for its bioremediation potential in petroleum-contaminated environments.
