Figure 2


Fig. 2. Representative limb segment angular trajectories during a stride for an elephant (Subject H, Table 1) moving at normal walking speed; 1.37±0.28 m s–1 (Fr=0.11; N=5). Stance phase is shown in blue; swing phase in red. Note that the stance phase for the forelimb (right side) is offset ~15% of a stride relative to the hindlimb, as the data were collected synchronously; this relative limb phase offset is typical for a lateral sequence walk in elephants (Hutchinson et al., 2003; Hutchinson et al., 2006).
