Terrestrial locomotion includes burrowing, crawling, walking, running, hopping and jumping and all involve mechanically variations on lever-joint systems operated by muscles. ... Here are some terrestrial modes of locomotion (Figure 1). Consider the inch worm (A). Such caterpillars use a "two anchor"

Despite the dynamic nature of locomotion, little is known about how multiple muscles, and different parts ... The considerable diversity in locomotor behavior among terrestrial vertebrates is facilitated by the complex functional integration of the limb muscles, which has been recognized for over a century (Pettigrew, 1874 ;
