QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Netherzone and Agricolae: New article, long enough, neutral and sourced. The hook is interesting but it is missing a "([example] pictured)" (or alike) anywhere (and I think that "capybara" should be in plural). Muybridge's gifs are interesting (and naturally PD). Earwig marks a "Violation Unlikely 16.0%". QPQ done. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 04:13, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Tbhotch thank you for the review and feedback. I've made the changes you suggested. I'm relatively new to DYK and not familiar with all aspects of the procedure, but I am wondering if the three "other problems" fields should be coded "y" (green check mark) or or left blank? Netherzone (talk) 04:34, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

The "other problems" generally refer to not-so-obvious issues/unmentioned-by-this-list issues that might exist, like it "previously appeared bolded on DYK" or it contains excessive original research. The "yes" parameter to the "other problems" question does not mean that there are problems with the article, but the opposite. Tagging it as "no" produces a cross mark and it implies that there are additional problems. It's confusing at first but the goal is to not have crosses.

Back to the article, it is now good to go. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 04:56, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Tbhotch, thank you for the clear explanation and for the review. Netherzone (talk) 05:02, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

@Netherzone and Tbhotch:Actually, as far as I can tell it was just one ostrich and just one capybara, so they probably should both be singular rather than both plural.Agricolae (talk) 05:05, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Done! Netherzone (talk) 05:09, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Promoting the main hook to Prep 7, definitely with the GIF. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:32, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
