There was this quiz that Akin Alabi did yerstaday, I like the quiz cos tis really educational., He asked 'How many animals got 4 knees' and majority said Elephant got four knees, now after my extensive research, I found out that no animal got four knees.

''What looks like the elephant's front
knees are actually its wrists. There's a
popular internet factoid which states
that the elephant is the only animal
which has four knees. But it doesn't; it
has two knees at the back, and elbows
and wrists at the front, exactly like
other quadrupeds. Elephants, horses,
dogs and all other quadruped
mammals have two knees and two
elbows. Almost all mammals have
basically the same skeletal structure
because we are descended from
common ancestors.''

I don't know if am wrong or not,, Your contributions are highly welcome.

Thanks

Ask google

Pretyangel25: Ask google

Ofcourse I did, top websites like wiki answeres, wikipedia says tis a myth and dat elephants got two knees, however, some few websites says elephants got 4 knees. When the answer of the came out, it says elephants got 4 knees...now tis really confusing.
That's why I ask nairaland maybe I could get a proof.

Of course you were right, no animal has four knees.
The thing is, in such a quiz it is the quiz setter that determines the answers, even if they are wrong, well... You shouldn't be confused at all.

Thanks a bunch

You make sense OP. Thanx for this post.





Let us please treat our fellow animals with respect. We all come from the same ancestral source, however distant it is. The tiny seed of life that planted this Earth.
