I think I’ve said this before, but:

- The Ninja Turtles are hilarious because the connection between ninjutsu and turtles seems to come out of nowhere

- but there is also probably something to be said for martial-arts animals with more comprehensible connections

-such as, for example

1-the species name sounds similar to the name of the martial art

2-the animal is native to a region where the martial art is practiced

3-based on anatomy and biology, the animal seems like it could be good at the martial art

For passing #1 and #2 while hilariously failing #3, may I suggest the Capoeira Capybara
