Question

How far can a squirrel jump?
a) 20 feet
b) 10 feet
c) 15 feet
d) 30 feet

Answer 1

a squirrel can jump 10 feet

Answer 2

They have long legs, with strong muscles and ligaments, adaptations that help them sprint up to 30 mph through wooded terrain and jump 10 feet high and 30 feet wide in one bound. This means, while predators may have to run around large obstacles such as fallen trees, the deer are able to leap over them and escape.
