Ideal animal build?
Cheetahs and lots of other animals have 4 legs. Insects have 6. Spiders have 8. Squid have 10 limbs. Some millipedes have 750 legs. Snakes don't have any. Humans have 2 legs plus 2 arms. Birds have 2 legs plus 2 wings.
My question is: what setup do you think would be ideal?
I'd suggest 8 limbs total: 4 legs, 2 arms, and 2 wings. But I'm not really sure. The hands should have long fingers, like humans, but maybe with retractable claws too. I'm not sure what type of feet would be best. Maybe hooves? Mountain goats seem to be able to get around pretty well.
