There is currently great interest in developing ecological models for investigating human evolution. Yet little attention has been given to energetics, one of the cornerstones of modern ecosystem ecology. This paper examines the ecological correlates of variation in metabolic requirements among exta

## HOMINID EVOLUTION Central to our concern with natural selection is the apparent fit between organisms and their environments. According to both advocates 3,8 and critics of adaptationist thinking, the external world sets certain problems that organisms solve. Natural selec-

How viable is the argument that increased locomotor efficiency was a n important agent in the origin of hominid bipedalism? This study reviews data from the literature on the cost of human bipedal walking and running and compares it to data on quadrupedal mammals including several non-human primate
