The Influence of Snow Properties on Speed and Gait Choice in the Svalbard Rock Ptarmigan (Lagopus muta hyperborea)
Substrate supportiveness is linked to the metabolic cost of locomotion, as it influences the depth to which the foot of a moving animal will sink. As track depth increases, animals typically reduce their speed to minimize any potential energetic imbalance. Here, we examine how self-selected speed in...
