Animals like bats and some birds hang upside down by their feet as a method of resting and roosting. This behavior allows them to take advantage of gravity for quick takeoffs, as they can launch into flight without needing to build momentum on the ground. Additionally, hanging helps them avoid predators and can provide a safer environment in which to sleep.
