Schematic cross-section through the shoulder region of a cursorial mammal in (left) two-limb support and (right) one-limb support. Skeleton: black, muscles: double lines. The narrower the trunk, the smaller the moments. The joint forces in the shoulder joint lie in a parasagittal plane. A clavicle is superfluous.
