well personly i dont think there is, but maybe if a cat or dog lost their leg ina car crash or something it is possible to have a animal with 3 legs ;-) i dont think that there is an animal with three legs but as rightly said if a 4 legged animal is involved in a car crash and loses 1 leg it has3 legs ;-D

Tripedal (from the Latin tri = three + ped = foot) is the term used for (or would be used for) any animal that stands on three legs. The terms Bipedal and Quadrupedal are used more commonly when referring to animals that either walk on two legs (i.e. humans who walk upright) or animals such as dogs and cats who walk on four legs.

The terms triped, tripedal and tripedalism are rarely, if ever, used in a real scientific context, as there are no known naturally occurring three-legged animals on Earth. Although the movement of some Macropods such as kangaroos, which can alternate between resting their weight on their muscular tails and their two hind legs, may be an example of tripedal locomotion in animals.
