Figure 3

Froude numbers estimated from dinosaur trackways over a large size range of quadrupeds and bipeds mirror our findings that smaller vertebrate species walk relatively more quickly (i.e. with a higher Froude number) than larger species. The references for these data can be found in Supplementary Table S3.
