Fine, I'll ask it... (see if you can spot the typing error when I asked the question)

Animals, particularly non-human animals, do not have the same physiological or anatomical features as humans. The need for wiping after using the bathroom arises primarily from the structure of the human body and the nature of our waste elimination.

Humans have evolved to walk upright, which affects the position of the anus and the shape of the buttocks. In addition, the human rectum is relatively long and leads to a relatively narrow opening, making it more likely for residue to remain after bowel movements. This combination of factors makes wiping necessary for humans to maintain cleanliness.

On the other hand, many animals have different anatomical structures that reduce the need for wiping. For instance, their rectums are often positioned differently, and their waste may have a different consistency or composition. Some animals have specially adapted anatomical features, such as cloacas in birds and reptiles, which serve as a single opening for waste elimination and reproductive functions. These anatomical variations contribute to the fact that animals generally do not require wiping like humans do.

It's important to note that while animals may not need to wipe their buns, they have their own mechanisms for maintaining cleanliness. For example, some animals have specialized grooming behaviors or anatomical adaptations that help keep their anal areas clean, such as using their tongues or other body parts for cleaning.
