gradual flexion of those joints and tlie bending of the f
...etlock as the body passes over its point of support.
The danger to be apprehended in the use of the fore leg to arrest the downward movement when the body was falling, as in Fig. 5, does not exist in this position, as the momentum of gravity has been ar- rested by the posterior extremities, and the centre of gravity has reached its lowest point, while the weight is divided with the hind leg.
Propulsion is now going on in the fore leg through the great pec- toral and dorsal, and in the hind leg through its propellers proper.
