Mechanics of animal movement [PDF]
Current Biology, 2005 The questions highlighted here cannot represent all the kinds of questions that biomechanists have asked about human and animal movement. In addition to the ones I have omitted, there must be many good questions that we have not yet thought of asking.

Spatial memory and animal movement [PDF]
Ecology Letters, 2013 AbstractMemory is critical to understanding animal movement but has proven challenging to study. Advances in animal tracking technology, theoretical movement models and cognitive sciences have facilitated research in each of these fields, but also created a need for synthetic examination of the linkages between memory and animal movement. Here, we draw

Royal Society Open Science, 2021 We investigate theoretically the ballistic motion of small legged insects and legless larvae after a jump. Notwithstanding their completely different morphologies and jumping strategies, some legged and legless animals have convergently evolved to jump ...
