Humans have evolved physiological traits that enable endurance running, which was likely used for persistence hunting.

Bipedalism in human ancestors allowed for energy-efficient travel and the ability to see over tall grasses.

Efficient locomotion helps animals patrol and defend their territory, which is critical for access to resources and mates.

Quadrupedalism provides stability and speed, benefiting animals in various ecological niches.

Locomotion that includes the use of tools can lead to more efficient food acquisition and habitat modification.

Burrowing and digging behaviors allow animals to create habitats, evade predators, and access new food sources.

Stealthy movement enhances hunting success and survival by avoiding detection by prey and predators.

The evolution of flight in birds and bats enhances foraging range and escape from ground-based threats.

Locomotive abilities that support migration are crucial for exploiting different habitats seasonally.

Coordinated locomotion in groups, such as herding or schooling, provides evolutionary benefits like protection and efficient foraging.

Climbing adaptations in primates serve access to arboreal food sources and predator evasion.
