Do Penguins Have Knees? (2019)

I remember a comedian talking about taking his cat to the vet and being told the cat had bad knees. "I didn't even know cats _had_ knees, but what do I know? If the vet told me he needs new batteries, I can't argue with him."

Also the title of an Imponderables book. In the days before search engines got good, you could actually email the author a question and get an answer back.

I bet it would be fun to have a knee inside your belly. It becomes possible to stir bowels, so digestion would go faster, or you could scratch your liver when it itches.

I believe the mistake of thinking bird ankles are knees is the source of the name of the delightful webcomic False Knees.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;falseknees.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;falseknees.com</a><p>And I say “believe” because I haven’t found any explanation of the reason for the name, but I don’t know what else it would refer to.

According to comedian Kellen Erskine, no:<p>&quot;...here&#x27;s where evolution gets shady, if these poor animals have been walking 80 miles every year for the past 10 million years why don&#x27;t they have knees yet? The wings haven&#x27;t worked out for some reason but couldn&#x27;t they at least get some bendy legs?&quot;<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=V1imLp-IUzI" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=V1imLp-IUzI</a>

What a lovely question! I enjoyed reading the answer too.<p>It reminded me of the childrens book &quot;Did Jesus Ever See a Penguin?&quot;

Is there an animal with functional, walking legs, but doesn&#x27;t have knees?

Someone is cheating on a LearnedLeague One Day Quiz…

I am more curious about bees&#x27; knees.

This article was the bee&#x27;s knees

The first point I noticed about the article was the writer&#x27;s name, Autumn Syracuse. It&#x27;s one of the most outstanding names I&#x27;ve ever come across.<p>A: Yes - They are hidden under the feathers at the tops of the legs.
