Limb bone scaling in hopping diprotodonts and quadrupedal artiodactyls (2018)
Report
Doube, M., Felder, A. A., Chua, M. Y., Lodhia, K., Klosowski, M. M., Hutchinson, J. R., & Shefelbine, S. J. Limb bone scaling in hopping diprotodonts and quadrupedal artiodactyls

Bone adaptation is modulated by the timing, direction, rate, and magnitude of mechanical loads. To investigate whether frequent slow, or infrequent fast, gaits could dominate bone adaptation to load, we compared scaling of the limb bones from two mam...
