Procedure for Testing an Unknown: 1  The BAP test may be used to either test a throat culture or an unknown bacterial species for hemolytic activity. 2  If an unknown species of bacteria is to be tested, divide a BAP plate in thirds.
The geographic area of the cheetah population is dwindling. Today they are mainly found in sub-Sahara Africa. Cheetahs mainly exist in Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kenya, and Tanzania, and Northwestern Iran. These cats are now thought to be extinct in India and rare in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Russia.
Cheetah Habitat. These carnivorous cats typically set up homes in habitats such as deserts, semi-deserts, savannas, grasslands, arid woodlands and scrubby settings. They gravitate to wide open environments. Cheetahs do not inhabit tropical rain forests. The independent cats hunt in the lightness of the day, and the tall grasses of their surroundings enable them to remain inconspicuous and under the radar as they do so. Cheetahs mostly stay on terra firma, but it isn't unheard of them to ascend trees once in awhile.
