I used to have a job delivering bedding material for cattle. When I would unload they would often gather at the back of my semi truck and jump and dance around headbutting the material as it was falling out the back like enthusiastic dachshunds. It made me a bit nervous getting out of the truck in case one accidentally crushed me.
Happy cows are a little scary but hilarious at the same time.
There was girl in my country that wanted a hores to do those jumping courses with, her parents said no. So she trained one of the families cows to do the jumping instead, it worked marvellously.
At least some species of mole and pretty much all species of sloths are physiologically incapable of jumping, so I don’t think restricting it to land mammals would make a difference in this context.
Can a cow actually jump?
Much much better than you think. And better than they really should be able to. I saw a ropeing steer get over a 5 foot fence once.
Yeah, we regularly had issues with our cows jumping the fence. Was annoying, but also really impressive at the same time.
As someone who used to be subscribed to r/happycowgifs, they definitely can!
Cows can actually jump higher than a house. This is because houses can’t jump.
Good one, Cora. Next time you see Barrett, try it out on him.

Going to the cow dance is a new item for the bucket list:

Holy shit that is so pure

I remember hearing that Elephants are the only land animal that cannot jump.
Could be a fake Snapple fact, so feel free to investigate further!
Not 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:
Only land mammal, perhaps?

Ah, good point.
I don’t think snakes can either
That’s what a lot of people think until they are 3 feet away from one and suddenly find it attached to their leg!
