The functional development of the mole skeleton reveals how extreme adaptations molded the anatomy of fossil mammals. Biomechanical studies show that the modified posture redistributed the muscle forces to the clavicle, reducing the overload in the scapula. How did the underground habit alter the structure of the shoulder? Life under the earth requires the constant application of...
