Chicken without legs, like Zuzie Q. from the Weebles cartoon

Chicken without legs, like Zuzie Q. from the Weebles cartoon
I've read that a newborn human child's head size is constrained by balancing fitting through the mother's pelvis ("cephalopelvic disproportion") with ability to run. If human descendants evolve to scoot on hands and bottom (see video), the pelvis can become as wide as it needs to be to pass baby.

If our descendants had no legs, like the children from the Weebles cartoon, they'd also have a hole at the bottom of the skull. That's more an "upright" thing than a "bipedal" thing.

I think I know which Weeble the felon looks like, with his orange skin, floppy hair, unbuttoned jacket, and red cap with white lettering: Bumpus

A rough English counterpart might be
- What do you call a frog without legs?
- Unhoppy
("hop" = jump; resembles "unhappy")
On the other hand, Weebles fans might put it this way:
- What do you call a frog with no legs?
- Call him by his name: Uggie

I'm curious how someone might tag the anthro characters from the 2005 Weebles cartoon. They have arms, but instead of hind legs they wobble around on their butt.

Sure do. This one from 2005 reminds me of the President.

I wonder if even Hasbro knows. Every 6 years or so, they bring back Weebles.

Are you sure you're turning into a Pokémon, or into a Weeble?

Tell me about it. In one episode of Weebles, Bumpus (mailman/inventor) body-slams a firefighter into a Super Springaling 3000 catapult.

I wasn't old enough to have the 1970s Weebles, but I remember the Weebles from the late 1980s through 2023. Names in alt text

When Nintendo escalated its fight against Wii hobbyists and developers working from home in 2009, I decided I was done with that company. I haven't played new Nintendo games since 2011, and I've largely given up on consoles less than 20 years old.
Instead, embrace modern original NES games.

Were the 2004-2005 Weebles also inferior?

Unless they went back on it to signify that later games take place after the Marios were potty-trained. Overalls appear to be common attire for young boys in cartoon world: look at TomTom from Cocomelon.

Weeble, chicken, why not both?
In the 2004-2005 Weebles continuity, Zuzie Q. Woozie is a young and somewhat reckless hen who delivers food from Pizza Rizza to the residents of Weebleville.
