    Notes: [Auszug] Penguins use twice as much metabolic energy as other terrestrial animals of a similar mass to walk a given distance, which was thought to be because side-to-side waddling requires excessive work. Here we show that waddling actually conserves mechanical energy and suggest instead that ...
