In the code aren't we just telling the frog to move forward, how does it know to do the leaping animation as if it was a real frog? I feel like we would have to make its arms and legs move like that.

Courses Plus Student 22,106 Pointsyes, you're right, all the objects have animations stored in them unless they are static

8,958 PointsThanks so much. So all the animations like that are stored in the object before being brought into unity?
