Primate locomotion and evolution encompass the diverse adaptations that have enabled primates to negotiate complex arboreal environments. Throughout their evolutionary history, primates have acquired ...

Researchers questioned if coordinated group movements by animals moving through a fluid could reduce the energy cost of locomotion. By combining biomechanics and bioenergetics the researchers found ...

Scientists found parallels between the neural circuitry that guides locomotion in sea slugs and in more complex animals like mammals. Hundreds of millions of years before the evolution of animals with ...
