Feet are wonderful, they help us stand, run, skip and are great for a tickle attack. But not everyone’s feet are the same, check out this top ten list to discover animals with some of the coolest feet!
1) American Coot
They have long toes wrapped in skin that help them to swim while still being able to walk on land.
2) Elephant
Their feet have ‘cushion pads’ which distribute the weight. They also use their feet to communicate, stomping the ground to send out vibrations.
3) Gecko
Their toes are covered in tiny microscopic hairs, which help them to stick to surfaces.
4) Ostrich
They are the only bird with two toes. This design helps them to run fast, reaching up to about 70 km an hour!

Like most members of the cat family, their paws have padding to help them walk quietly they also have retractable claws.
6) Bald eagle
They have powerful talons that they use to hunt prey like fish

8) Monkey
They have an opposable thumb and sensitive pads that allow them to grab onto things like a branch.
9) Crocodile
They have webbed feet to help them swim. Their toes also have sharp claws!
