1 INTRODUCTION Tree sloths evolved a below-branch mode of movement making them one of few mammalian taxa for which suspensory locomotion and posture is nearly obligatory. Indeed, the imprint of evolution for suspensorial habit is most remarkably reflected in the physiology, limb form, and feet of extant sloths.
Architectural properties Myological descriptions for B. variegatus dissection originally followed those of Macalister (1869), Humphrey (1870), Mackintosh (1875), and Windle and Parsons (1899), but were updated in a recent companion study (Butcher et al., 2022). Briefly, the pelvic limbs were skinned and all muscles were systematically dissected (excised proximal-to-distal) beginning with extrinsic muscles of the pelvic girdle.
