This is an ancient riddle...
Answer is humans...
As babies, they crawl (all 4's), then they walk (2's) and when elderly, they use a cane (3's).

Isn't the answer a human? As a baby we crawl on all fours, then we walk on two legs, and towards the end of our lives (if we are lucky) we walk with the assistants of a cane (three legs).

It's man, of course... first we crawl as an infant, then we walk in our youth and adulthood, and finally we walk with the aid of a cane in old age :-)

man.
first we crawl, using both our arms and legs. (4)
then we walk using only our feet. (2)
then when we're old we use a cane in addition to our legs. (3)

man; he crawls on all fours as a baby, walks on two legs as a man, and walks with a cane as an old man(hence the third leg).

This is also known as "The Riddle of the Sphynx," and the answers stating "man" are correct.
