Why do most animals just not have belly buttons?

584 viewsBiologyOther

does it serve a purpose for us to still have them aside from the obvious? i mean after birth. what about for animals *not* having them once they’re born? i was wondering specifically about rats and puppies. i’ve had both as babies and they all had a little black spot for a week or two, then it disappeared for good. when the rats were still pink with no fur i actually saw the black spot dissipate over time within like a week and a half or so

I want to add a question on top of this. I saw birth in a movie once and they cut the cord kinda in the middle, what happens to the rest of the cord that is inside the mother? Where does it lead to? Is it cut again?
