Fig. 1. Walk–trot transition speed (closed circles) versus leg length for different-sized horses. Isolines represent speed and leg length combinations for specific Froude numbers. The walk–trot transition occurs at faster absolute speeds in horses with longer legs but at nearly the same Froude number (0.35). Values are means ± S.D.
