Fingerprint Question
    #11548508 -

I may be mistaken here, but why is it that it seems like only humans have fingerprints and other animals don't?

Is this an actual fingerprint question or
an acid fingerprint question?  It's not often
these forums see the former.

Go go wikipdedia!

"Some other animals, including many primates, koalas, and fishers have their own unique prints.[60] According to one study, even with an electron microscope, it can be quite difficult to distinguish between the fingerprints of a koala and a human.[61]"

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

Equally, it would suck to be accused of a crime actually committed by a koala. They look snuggly, but I bet they are real bastards.

Most animals dont have fingers...  Those that do have finger prints.
