Episode 193 - Hopping
Manage episode 422615599 series 3382617
Terrestrial animals get around using a variety of gaits: walking, running, galloping, etc. Some of these gaits are particularly bouncy! Hopping comes in many forms in many different groups of animals. This episode, we’ll discuss what makes a particular gait “hoppy,” what functions hopping serves, and what adaptations are found in the best hoppers. Then, we’ll explore what we can tell about hopping in the fossil record.
In the news: dinosaur skin, marine worms, ancient monotremes, and plant-ant relations
