minus-squareRhynoplazlink4•10 months agoI remember hearing that Elephants are the only land animal that cannot jump. Could be a fake Snapple fact, so feel free to investigate further!
minus-squareWrenlinkfedilinkEnglish5•10 months agoNot the only land animal, but it’s true they can’t jump: 100% super reliable source. Mainly linking that site because this line kills me: The tortoise cannot jump because it lacks agility and speed.

Only land mammal, perhaps?

Ah, good point.
I don’t think snakes can either
