There are 4 species of big cats of the felidae family in panthera genus : lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars.
Leopards and jaguars are two distinct species, but they are similar:
the leopard has relatively short legs and a long body with a large skull. It is similar in appearance to the jaguar, but is smaller and more slightly built. Its fur is marked with rosettes similar to those of the jaguar, but the leopard's rosettes are smaller and more densely packed, and do not usually have central spots as the jaguars do
Also leopards are found in Asia and Africa while jaguars are found in south America.
Cheetahs are in the felidae family and the only member of the acinonyx genus. Cheetahs have solid spots versus a rosette pattern for a leopard. Cheetah's have longer legs and a longer tail. Leopards are much more solid and heavy. Cheetahs are the fastest land animals in the world, able to run up to 75 mph in short bursts, and accelerate from 0 to 60 in 3 seconds
