Horses cant wipe either but they do fine in terms if the smell. The trick is that they have an anus designed to prolapse a few inches so that the feces only ever comes into contact with the rectum and never exterior tissues.
TIHI. Can we, as a community, delete his comment, please?
Toilet paper companies don't want you to know this one trick.
If you haven't bought a bidet (like $50-100 and a few minutes to install) or shower every time you poop, you are probably covered in feces right now. Toilet paper alone is kind of gross.
I actually poop in the shower and waffle stomp it down the drain. I don't even have a toilet.
I really hope you're a vet or something and have a legit reason to know this
Maybe he work in a Zoo
... I did know before reading the post the reason we as humans are the only ones who wipe. Where did I learn this? From you (the internet) of course. Where else xD
dogs and cats do that weird thing where they scoot and rub their butts on the carpet... plus licking.
Actually, dogs also prolapse their anus. They scoot because their anal glands get backed up and that is the only way they can clear it out.
Felines, meanwhile, are not capable of prolapsing their anus, and instead use their tongues to remove any fecal matter that accumulates.
Any comforting words about cats and why that isn't gross?
