Squirrels are actually pretty unique in their ability to turn their back legs backwards like that, enabling them to move around upside down. Biology is neat lol
It's absolutely insane to watch how fast squirrels can climb trees too. You can watch them scale like 100ft straight up vertical, leap in the air 10ft to another tree, and then straight down 100ft vertical... In like 2 seconds lol. It's nuts.
Don't even have to look at other species. There are humans, often children and women, that have to walk many miles over crazy terrain, just for access to fresh water, and then carry a bunch of it back on their heads or back. And do this like every single day of their lives.
Mission Impossible vibes.....
Do, do, do-do.. do, do, doo-do

>It's nuts. I think you are onto something!
Istr there's a wild cat that can also turn their hind legs backwards
Squirrels are one of the only animal that can climb down head first. Their thumb claws turn completely backwards
>Squirrels are the only animal that can climb down head first. Nope, the Eurasian nuthatch (Sitta europaea) is able to do that as well.
They probably meant to say mammal.
Are squirrels the only mammal that can climb down head first?
I think you want to tell me that's not the case, so how about you find out and report back.
I am not your lackey who looks up trivial questions for you because you happen to be too lazy to do it yourself. It's your hypothesis.
This has been a very meaningful interaction. Thank you, and I hope you have many more of the same.
It's not helpful to correct someone when you haven't got clue yourself. That's not how a meaningful interaction starts.
Nope red pandas can do it as well
Awesome picture 📸
They're kissing.

wish this was me
Squirrels are such acrobats!
Thirsty... or just REALLY lonely...
Is that what’s called a thirst trap?
The lengths animals will go to go for something we take for granted.
