A sheep legs

[CHRIS_374365347]

My daughter reckons all four legs on a sheep are the same.

Is it true? before i cough up my pound

Search for a photo of a sheep if you have none nearby.

A Sheeps front legs can kneel bend like ours it's rear legs are jointed the upposite way, that's why they can jump so well.

But I guess all 4 are 'legs' just the same

Might be wrong but I think it is just elephants with 4 legs the same as they are the only creatures with 4 knees.

Oh I like this question I do like rural science.

Sheep have knees on the forelegs and hocks on the hind legs.

They also have a rear shank on both the hinds and foreshanks on both the fore.

The also have dewclaws on the fores the same as dogs.

LMH,

Thanks for your reply.

Are you able to clarify if penguins have knees or not?
