These squirrels do parkour. #shorts #science

The video explores how squirrels make complex decisions when jumping between branches, considering factors like distance and branch sturdiness. Berkeley scientists conducted experiments using nuts to test these abilities, observing squirrels using parkour techniques to overcome challenges. The research aims to apply these findings to robotics, enabling robots to assess terrains quickly, similar to squirrels, especially in scenarios like natural disasters.
