The size of an animal's feet is directly related to its body size and weight-bearing requirements. Rats have small feet relative to their body size because they are small, lightweight animals that need nimble feet for agility and balance. In contrast, elephants have huge feet to support their massive body weight and distribute the pressure evenly across the ground to prevent sinking in soft terrain. This adaptation helps elephants move efficiently and support their weight without causing harm to their feet.
