Yes, I read that after posting the link. That is new info to me. I previously read that the existence of pronghorns, with their massive speed/acceleration, was evidence that this cheetah likely was fast as well, as they wouldn't have need to evolve that speed without a predator putting pressure on them to do so. This contradicts that somewhat.
