THOUGHT
“The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.” – Oscar Wilde
FACT
Four of the five fastest land animals reside in Africa: the cheetah, the wildebeest, the lion, and the Thomson’s gazelle. All of these animals can run at speeds above 50 miles per hour, with the cheetah reaching a top speed of about 70 miles per hour.
Tigers only live in Asia, not in Africa.
