MammalBase - Standard Trait value: Terrestrial

Standard Trait value: Terrestrial


Standard Trait value: Terrestrial
Standard Trait: Taxon: Locomotion: Eisenberg 1981 (n/a)
Standard Trait value: Terrestrial
Display order: 60
Description: Category 6 includes species that have evolved specializations for foraging on the surface of the earth with minimal digging and minimal climbing Essentially we are talking about animals that forage on the ground and use cavities opportunistically, having limited ability to con struct burrows. For example, the fox, Vulpes fulva, essentially forages on the surface, has a limited ability to climb, and, though it digs a burrow at the time of parturition, cannot be considered fossorial in the same sense as the animals in category 1.
