A three-dimensional analysis of the morphological evolution and locomotor behaviour of the carnivoran hind limb

BACKGROUND: The shape of the appendicular bones in mammals usually reflects adaptations towards different locomotor abilities. However, other aspects such as body size and phylogeny also play an important role in shaping bone design. We used 3D landmark-based geometric morphometrics to analyse the s...
