This project investigates the evolution of grasping behavior in tetrapods by examining forelimb anatomy and function across mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. It aims to understand the relationship between anatomy, function, and ecological context in grasping.
Human beings have been credited with unparalleled capabilities for digital prehension grasping.
However, given the single evolutionary origin of humans and the unique anatomical features they possess, quantitative tests of evolutionary scenarios remain difficult.
Moreover, functional inferences based on fragmentary fossil material are often problematic.
However, grasping behavior is widespread among tetrapods, thus providing an excellent context for testing hypotheses concerning the origin of ma…
