If you’re looking for more the source is Satoshi Kawasaki books “Exchanging bodies with animals”. Might have better luck finding a webpage if you can read Japanese.

Huh that one’s actually really interesting.

As if human legs aren’t the weird ones - they evolved from feet into hands and then into weird hands that we walk around on and call feet.

I’m gonna need more info

Humans evolved from animals that walked on the ground, on the part of the hand/foot we would call fingers/toes. Like most animals btw (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitigrade?wprov=sfti1).
Then the those animals transitioned into arboreal creatures, which evolved hands in order to climb & live in trees. These animals would’ve had hands & feet like monkeys.
Then those arboreal animals transitioned back into walking animals that don’t climb as much, which turned their feet into something more like chimp/gorilla feet.
Then those animals began walking upright, which changed their feet to lose the ability to grasp since they no longer climbed as much. This is what gave humans the feet we have now.

This was a weird anime for me. I couldn’t eat noodles when watching it

Horse feet are so strange. Actually, horse fingers and toes. Most of what you can the horse “leg” is what would be your finger.
With a big beefy nail that looks like horror when born, and smashes and rubs into place in their first day.
If they don’t give you nightmares, you don’t understand how they work.

Horses know how the world works, that’s they they’re always giving it the middle finger.
spinne@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Wait, what? Please tell me more about this horror nail, I had no idea
hansolo@lemmy.today 1 year ago
When they’re born, they’re called foal slippers.

But just in general, horse hooves are amazing and so weird. It’s literally if your middle finger was half your leg, and the nail was a huge wraparound thing. Then plus you grew extra keratin on your fingertip like a mega callus from birth. Because why not?

This is a whole new level of orgasm for people who are into feet.
Yes, I am one of them.

I keep repeating this to everyone who’s listening and add that cats have clown feet.

In case anyone is wondering the labels are human, dog, horse, and flamingo.

It’s weird to see “犬” and “馬” written in katakana.

When a cat loafs, the things that stick up on either side of her back? Those are her knees.

So you’re telling me my bird doesn’t actually have backwards knees, it’s his ankle??

There was a great Vinesauce segment on Satoshi Kawasaki. I love this weird shit.

With a helpful reminder in parenthesis that they mean flamingo the bird, as opposed to the casino, which doesn’t have any feet.
Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
According to their press kit, their casino alone has 93,000 feet. All or them square for some reason.
PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year ago
But why Katakana? Those are some reasonably basic kanji- certainly not beyond bird anyway.
morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
it seems that the scientific nomenclature for families of animals in Japanese uses katakana:
