My Dad told me that the sheep in Wales (a mountainous country to the west of England for those that don't know)(!) had evolved shorter front legs and longer back legs than sheep from the lowland areas. This was to enable them to keep their stomachs level whilst grazing on the mountain sides... I believed this for rather a long time!
