Answer:

Ant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog would be the most frantic, when all are compared at an equal speed of 30 mph. An ant of such strength, has six jointed legs and has an exoskeleton. An Ant of such size(mass) and weight would have take off with better traction too(6 legs). So the Ant would have the greatest kinetic energy. Also it would take turns while fleeing from the wildfire, while running at almost 30 mph while the other animals wouldn't come that close.

It is technically and literally illogical to say an ant can do 30 mph in its regular size.

Dont believe me? Watch ants scurrying away when threatened and taking turns and U-turns. Six legs offer more energy while fleeing by instinct. Literally six legs at 30 mph. Crazy!
