Relevance of Mammalian
Stance to Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy
A mammal's stance affects many aspects of their lives and is,
therefore, a very good way to compare mammals. By comparing
two different species stances, it would be possible to predict which
animal would be faster or stronger. Stance can tell how well an
animal can grasp things, balance on two feet, or leap great
distances. It is a structural difference that benefits the animal
in its particular lifestyle and way of survival. This makes in an
important part of comparative vertebrae anatomy.
