Animals use physics? Let us count the ways
Briefly

Most cats avoid injury by twisting themselves to land on their feet when falling, defying Newton's laws. Animals, from insects to elephants, utilize physical laws for movement and behaviors.
Living organisms, like cats, are not closed mechanical systems and can consume stored energy to empower motion, showcasing how biology embraces and operates under physics' constraints.
Animal behavior, influenced by physics across various scales, is shaping the emerging field of animal behavior physics, unraveling the impact of interactions and environmental factors.
