Replying to a tweet from @arusha_e

Isn’t the other way around? The front paws have knees so they’re legs; the back legs have elbows so they’re arms?

Elephants have four knees. Maybe they’re the only mammals with four legs.

The bits on the back legs that look like elbows are actually heels - the knees are just crazy high up.
