Effects of particle size and thickness of quartz sand on the webbed foot kinematics of mallard (Anas platyrhynchos)

The webbed foot structure of mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) exhibits effective anti-subsidence properties when walking on soft ground. To investigate the effects of quartz sand particle size and thickness on joint angles and the movement patterns of webbed feet, we created a testing substrate with qu...
