"B[FONT="]ipedality, the ability to walk upright on two legs, is a hallmark of human evolution. Many primates can stand up and walk around for short periods of time, but only humans use this posture for their primary mode of locomotion.[/FONT][FONT="]Fossils suggests that bipedality may have begun as early as 6 million years ago. But it was with [FONT="]Australopithecus[/FONT], an early hominin who evolved in southern and eastern Africa between 4 and 2 million years ago, that our ancestors took their first steps as committed bipeds. Yet scientists still know little about the circumstances that led to this trait’s emergence."
