  • The way in which it walks is called 'Stacatto walking'. It does this to help deter predators.

  • none of those explanations make sense, it moves more so it's not conserving energy, there aren't many leaves in the desert so it will be noticed anyway, and it's feet spend more time touching the ground that way.

  • @hidanrulesusuck i believe it's actually to protect it's feet against the hot desert sands. although the leaf thing might be true too.

  • @hidanrulesusuck So anything that preys on it will think its just a dry leaf blowing in the wind 

  • @hidanrulesusuck i think to conserve energy being a desert dweller?

  • why is it walking like that?
