Monkeying Around: Primate Locomotion

Оглавление

How primates locomote — get from place to place — is fascinating, and it can tell you a lot about how they live. Some leap from limb to limb, others swing like trapeze artists, and of course humans walk on two feet (unless you’re a pirate or something). I discuss the main types of locomotion in the following sections; they’re illustrated in Figure 4-5.
