I remember watching a video that showed that this is how cats are always able to land on their feet. As in, their bodies evolved to be able to twist awkwardly (to us) like this. By counter-rotating the front from the back in the air, they can face backwards without being able to change their rotational momentum in the air.
They're clearly all owls in disguise.
