The grazing gait, and implications of toppling table geometry for primate footfall sequences

Many medium and large herbivores locomote forwards very slowly and intermittently when grazing. While the footfall order during grazing is the same as for walking, the relative fore–hind timing—phasing—is quite different. Extended periods of static stability are clearly required during grazing; howe...
