Hare
One of the swiftest creatures, hares are also exceptionally good jumpers. They can move at speeds of up to 72 kph (45 mph), making it challenging for predators to capture them.
Red Kangaroo
They have a maximum leap speed of 56 km/h. In our Animals A-Z section, you may watch a wonderful video of a red kangaroo mother.
Bharal

Klipspringer
A Klipspringer can leap ten times higher than itself and is around 1.5 metres (5 feet) tall. When compared to their size, they can jump higher than any other animal.
Grasshopper
Grasshoppers have a 20-times body-length jump capacity. That is the same as being able to jump as far as a basketball court!
Kangaroo Rat
The Kangaroo Rat has a staggering 45 times body length leap capacity! Compared to their size, they are the animals with the largest vertical leaps.
Froghopper
Froghoppers can jump 70 times their body height. They initially accelerate at 4,000 metres per second, within a millisecond reaching a take-off velocity of four metres per second!
Jumping Spider
