Figure 1. Comparison of footfall sequence in primate (baboon, above) and nonprimate (cat, below).

Figure 1

Footfall sequence is depicted numerically, beginning with the right hind limb in each animal. The primate is walking in diagonal sequence (RH-LF-LH-RF), and the nonprimate is walking in lateral sequence (RH-RF-LH-LF), where R = right, L = left, H = hind limb, and F = forelimb. Images from [2].
