“…With regard to the evolutionary transition to the permanent extended bipedal posture and locomotion, attention has been given to the postural and locomotor rep-ertoire in primates that are most closely related to humans, such as chimpanzees [Hunt, 1991;Doran, 1992Doran, , 1993aDoran, , b, 1997, bonobos [Doran, 1992[Doran, , 1993a, orang-utans [Sugardjito and van Hooff, 1986;Thorpe and Crompton, 2006;Myatt and Thorpe, 2011] and gorillas [Doran, 1997;LaRocque, 2008], as well as in cercopithecoids such as macaques [Dunbar and Badam, 1998;Wells and Turnquist, 2001] and baboons [Nagel, 1973;Rose, 1977;Hunt, 1991Hunt, , 1992. In adult Pongo abelli , the locomotor repertoire accounts for 7.3% of bipedal locomotion [Thorpe and Crompton, 2006] and for around 1.5% in Gorilla gorilla beringei [Doran, 1997]; the locomotor and postural repertoire accounts for about 1-2% of bipedalism in Pan paniscus [Doran, 1993a], 1.2% in Pan troglodytes [Doran, 1993b], around 1% in Macaca mulatta [Wells and Turnquist, 2001], 0.8% in Papio anubis [Rose, 1976] and 0.4% in Papio hamadryas [Nagel, 1973]. Extended ('human-like') bipedalism is not common in non-human primates; a few occurrences have been observed in chimpanzees [Hunt et al, 1996] and orang-utans [Thorpe et al, 2007], although bipedalism in these species usually involves a flexed posture.…”
