Figure 2

Representative vertical force traces during horizontal and vertical locomotion by the same individual of Eulemur mongoz (Hanna, unpub. data). The speeds are approximately similar in the two locomotor trials. Note that the forelimb peak forces during both horizontal locomotion and climbing are lower than the hindlimb peak forces.
