huge hindlegs

[kakapo123]

a new hindleg gene which would give nichelings the jumping ability. jumping would work somewhat like flying, allowing nichelings to go over things like rocks and bushes, only they wouldn't be able to fly up to the top of trees. the overall stats would be +4 jumping and +1 swimming. like both wings, they would be unlocked by inviting a nicheling with the gene into your tribe

some irl examples: a kangaroo, a quokka, a couple of mountain hares, a jackrabbit, a kangaroo rat, a jerboa and a springhare

for anyone interested, here is the skeleton of a jerboa (not sure which species) to show you just how ridiculously long these little guys' legs are
