There are only two types of animals — those which can swim and those which cannot. Why are humans the only creature that has the optional swimming feature they can turn on?

over time, as the population has grown and cities have emerged. a lot of people do not have to deal with a river/ocean etc. if you do not encounter water in your everyday life, you lose the skill and or learn the skill of survival.

just as I don’t know how to hunt and gather in the traditional sense, because my survival does not depend on it, not swimming is not longer required to survive
