Our paper, based on a uniquely large dataset of vertical descent behaviours in arboreal mammals, is published in @elife.bsky.social. The findings offer fresh perspectives on reconstructing postures in early primates.

Kinematics and morphology reveal how mammals descend trees safely, showing posture and movement strategies that suggest early upright behaviours in ancestral primates.
