Coordinating tiny limbs and long bodies: Geometric mechanics of lizard terrestrial swimming
Although typically possessing four limbs and short bodies, lizards have evolved diverse morphologies, including elongate trunks with tiny limbs. Such forms are hypothesized to aid locomotion in cluttered/fossorial environments but propulsion mechanisms (e.g., the use of body and/or limbs to interact...
