It's a webp. Firefox doesn't support those.

51.0.1 32bit. Don't ask me why I'm running 32bit FF, this is news to me as well.

I'd be more inclined to ask why it worked for you in that exact version, but not for me in the very same one. (Mine might be 64-bit, but I can't see that making a difference here.)

I went to investigate for curiosity's sake but OP changed the link on us!

Worked for me in Firefox for Android (53, Aurora build).

Maybe it's a prerelease feature, or maybe Firefox is falling back on a capability that at least some desktop OSes don't have.
