Do you remember what happened to Jatayu when he wrote that camel's "water supply" came from its stomach? Feluda had to explain him that the source of the "water supply" was not the camel's stomach but its hump. Jatayu also did not know much about revolvers (for him they were all hand-made small guns that fired six rounds), nor was he aware of the difference between a hippo and a walrus.
On the contrary, Feluda's knowledge of the world was accurate and in-depth, he was a voracious reader with an open mind. He was truly Satyajit Ray's alter ego .
