Fig. 3.
Locust slipping behavior. (A) Body accelerations during jumping trials where the locust had no (none), type-2, type-1 (one leg), and type-1 (two legs) slips (males only; Trial Details). Here, the shaded regions represent a SD around the mean. (B) Type-1 slip: two video snapshots where the foot does not reengage and leaves the surface. (C) Type-2 slip: two video snapshots where the foot reengages with a single spine. In B and C, motion of the red circle represents the approximate motion of the feature in the two images.
