the Peregrine Falcon is the fastest bird on record reaching horizontal cruising speeds of 65-90 kmh(40-55mph) and not exceeding speeds of 105-110kmh(65-68mph). When stooping, the Peregrine Falcon flies at much greater speeds however, varying from 160-440kmh(99-273mph)!!!!
Fastest Land Mammal
The fastest mammal on land is the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus). When measured over a short distance the cheetah can maintain a steady maximum speed of approximately 100km/h (62 mph) on level ground. However, research completed by Professor Craig Sharp of Brunel University, London, UK in 1965 recorded accurate speeds of 64.3 mph (29 m/sec or 104.4 km/h) for a 35-kg (77-lb) adult female over a measured distance of 201.2 m (220 yards or 660 ft). These speedy cheetahs are found racing through the open plains of sub-Saharan Africa, Iran, Turkmenistan and Afghanistan.

Cheetah, It is the fastest of all land animals and can reach speeds of up to 70 mph. The cheetah is well known for its amazing acceleration (0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds which is faster than the SLR McLaren, the Lamborghini Murciélago and the F/A-18 Hornet)
