Most likely none, as they are all in the same boat as we are, i.e. millions of years of evolution in a constant 1g environment.

Agreed, it's improbable. But we can't rule out the possibility that some animal has a balance sense that would translate to free fall better than most, if only by chance. That's partly how evolution works. Trait 'x' happens to be a better 'fit' for a new environment and gives its owner a reproductive advantage.
