Long-bone scaling has been analyzed in a large number of terrestrial mammals for which body masses were known. Earlier proposals that geometric or elastic similarity are suitable as explanations for long-bone scaling across a large size range are not supported. Differential scaling is present, and l

For a sample of 26 extant mammalian species, a significant relationship between body mass and chewing frequency was found, in which chewing frequency is proportional to body mass to the -0.128 power. This relationship is similar to previously published data relating stride frequency and body mass in
