Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla.
