... that the mass of the distal segments of the moving limbs could be an important component of the cost of legged locomotion ( Steudel,1990b ). We do not know the energy cost of moving the unloaded tarsometatarsal segment in guinea fowl. However, if the cost per mass for moving the combined mass of the two...
