I like how playful behavior seems te be present in a lot of animals. Evolutionary it doesn't necessarily seem advantageous, and yet a lot of animals just do stuff because it's fun. Maybe the advantage is training or something.
This (training/learning/exploring) and socialising are the main benefits imho.
It does have advantages, like building coordination, building strength and endurance, and bonding with pack members.
Awwww my Boston might do something like this she is a little ball of furry and licks
I can't stop watching this 🤣
