How many legs does a bear have?

Most people on the radio in south Texas missed this one.

I would have to say 4, since most of the time they walk or run with 4 of their limbs they have attached on their body. Did I get it right or did I give the typical South Texas answer.. ?

How many?

Isn't it 4? or that 4 'thing' do not call as 'leg'?

Maybe south Texas bears have no legs at all? I hope they were not serious - bears have 8 legs because they are spiders !!!

The only reason I can see people missing this question is because they see bears use their front legs in a manner similar to a set of arms.

However, it is still legs. The answer is 4. Duh!

The answer is 4, ffs.
Even pandas use their fore legs to grip bamboo.

Thing that makes leg to hand is:
- gripping power (monkeys, humans)
- coordination (monkeys, humans)
- flexibility (monkeys, humans)
- 3 joints in each finger

Actually some monkeys have 4 hands, as they can perform same actions with both hands & legs.

I intended first to post one reason as "thumb", but then I remembered panda has thumb.

Excuse me - my languageskills are failing. Is there any way that should be paws or claws?

hur hur...

neo77777 · 06-27-2002, 10:48 PM

Paws? Of course claws - bears are SPIDERS with 8 legs which are CLAWS!!!
Seriously what do we learn in pre-school stays with us till we become sysadmins where we start to believe in unbelievable, during my years in pre-school I believed that girls were no different from boys the only difference was the way how we pee, girls have to seat and I interpreted they'd do so because their legs were not as strong as boys' :-)
Just kidding - the difference is in the way we breath.

tundra · 06-28-2002, 03:17 AM

hey? they way we breath? or breathe? in any case... how so?

shoot2kill · 06-28-2002, 08:52 AM

in the way that men breathe to supply our brain for enough oxygen, while women breathe to pump up their breast.......

First off, that is not really true. We cant help that breathing makes our bosum move. But then, I dont know any men that mind it either.

Secondly, I think that some of you guys use air for your brains, but the majority I really question their purpose.
