Introduction Vertebrates exhibit a wide range of movement patterns. Across species and evolutionary time, they have transitioned from axial-based swimming to limb-based locomotion. Between species, they have uniquely adapted their movement repertoires to their environment, physiological needs, and mode of locomotion (Figure 1A; Hill et al., 2016; Sillar et al., 2016; Auclair et al., 2020).
