A farmer saw 4 heads 10 legs and 3 tails
a animal
Yes, lobsters regrow legs, claws and antennae, but can not regrow their tails.
To find the answer that there are five more crows than cows in the farmer's field you need to know how many animal legs are in the field. The complete problem is, "there is a total of 52 legs of all of the animals. How many cows and how many crows are in the field?"
horses have long legs because horses oringinated on the wild plains so had to run and jump away from predators
Then the front legs come out right behind the eyes. After that their tails start to shrink.

Assuming that all of the animals are "normal" (no amputees, 2-headed mutations, etc.) : 15 cows (15 x 4 = 60 legs) plus 5 chickens (5 x 2 = 10 legs) gives a total of 20 heads and 70 legs.
um heads tails legs and well......butts

They lose their tails, not legs.
ANSWER* the farmer has 130 pigs. you usually solve these problems with diagrams but since there are larger numbers i did it this way: there are 220 animals, and you know that they all have at least two legs. 220 x 2 = 440. you have 700 legs all together, so you subtract. 700 - 440= 260. you need 260 more legs. since you already accounted for each to have two legs, you need to divide 260 by 2 to see how many animals need two more legs, to equal four. (a pig.) 260/2= 130. therefore, 130 animals have four legs, making 130 pigs.
8 emus have 16 legs and 6 cows have 24 legs.
I don't know, but I'd guess it's something pretty scary!!! And predacious.
Sometimes farmers will dock the tails of sheep so that they do not grow a tail. They may also do this to pigs to keep them from attacking each others tails.
They swim or crawl like moving there body back and forth

14 beasts and 22 birds I agree. Let b = birds (2 legs each) Let a = animals (4 legs each) So 2b + 4a = 100 and b + a = 36 2b + 2a = 72 and 2a = 28 So a = 14 animals or beasts Then b + 14 = 36 and b = 22
