| An aardvark might make a great design to copy for a | | | | might just be the perfect robotic tool for many |

| very unique features with really great gripping clawed | | | | that is a matter of opinion, because they have |
| feet. It has a strong tail to balance on, as well as a long | | | | excellent hearing, good eyes and so many great |
| snout able to get into tight places along with a super | | | | features to serve their niche it is almost hard to find a |
| long tongue able to get into even tighter spots. You | | | | better animal for many human applications.They are |
| can see why such a robotic tool could assist mankind | | | | unfortunately not so easy to domesticate, to work with |
| as a robotic design for search and rescue, sniffing out | | | | us as pets and trading them for food is silly as they |

| an Earthquake.The aardvark is a smart animal in the | | | | simple for them. Therefore it makes sense to make |
