Have you ever wondered how mountain goats can jump and walk on nearly vertical cliffs as if gravity doesn’t apply to them? It’s not magic—it’s pure biomechanics and evolution at its finest!

Their secret lies in their unique hooves. They are hard on the outside but have a soft, rubbery inner part that acts like a natural suction cup, increasing grip. Additionally, their hind legs are longer than their front legs, making it easier for them to climb steep inclines.

Thanks to these features, they can jump up to two meters high and balance on rocky ledges just a few centimeters wide!
