When I was little, my father told me that the cows in Switzerland have shorter legs on one said than on the other so that they wouldn't tip over when they are walking on the mountain.
When I was 17, I was introduced to some Swiss people and told them how cool I thought it was that the animals had adapted this way!!! How embarassing.
