The rain forests in South America and elsewhere host a plethora of very diverse creatures that have adapted to their environment. I know there is flying squirrel, which doesn’t really fly, but leaps from tree to tree and uses the extra skin to help it glide. There is also another tree dweller that I saw on a show recently that was even more adapted than the flying squirrel. Unfortunately, I do not remember what it is.

The cougar has an exceptional vertical leap of 5.4 m (18 ft) and it’s horizontal jumping capability is suggested anywhere from 6 to 12 m (20 to 40 ft).

Tigers have an amazing jumping ability. They can leap as high as 5 m (16 ft) and as far as 9–10 m (30–33 ft), making them one of the highest-jumping mammals, just slightly behind cougars.

Kangaroos, Deers, tigers , monkeys

¿What about cats? I’m always surprised when my cat, so fat, jump onto a window so eaisly.

Lemurs are pretty cool jumpers :) really hard to catch because they jump in the trees and climb as well.

Pumas. You’ll notice the Puma shoe brand’s logo is of a jumping cat? That is for a reason. One of the best jumpers in the animal kingdom.
