Joint Loads in Marsupial Ankles Reflect Habitual Bipedalism versus Quadrupedalism
Joint surfaces of limb bones are loaded in compression by reaction forces generated from body weight and musculotendon complexes bridging them. In general, joints of eutherian mammals have regions of high radiodensity subchondral bone that are better at resisting compressive forces than low radioden...
