:Birds spring immediately to mind, they are digitigrade bipeds; perhaps by bipeds you were wondering about heavier creatures such as mammals . talk ) 03 : 22, 4 May 2008 ( UTC)

My main question is if it is even practical to have digitigrade legs on a biped and be able to run / walk / stand normally . talk ) 20 : 41, 4 May 2008 ( UTC)

The iridescent creature has four arms ( the top pair featuring two large, clawed digits, and the other pair having four webbed digits ), two digitigrade legs, and its green body is covered with insect hairs.

:The three toed pes ( foot ) of Iguanodon was relatively long, and when walking, both the hand and the foot would have been used in a digitigrade fashion ( on the fingers and toes ) . [ 1]

With two fingers flanked by two opposable thumbs on each hand, two large toes on each foot ( four small toes in earlier games ), digitigrade legs, broad chests and shoulders with narrow waists, Protoss are very agile and physically strong.

This specimen is larger than " D . macronyx " and the well preserved foot of it shows that pterosaurs do not have a digitigrade posture in their hindlimbs, but that it have a plantigrade gait, as has been inferred from footprints.

They have small, tight feet, walking on their toes ( thus having a digitigrade stance and locomotion ); their rear legs are fairly rigid and sturdy; the front legs are loose and flexible, with only muscle attaching them to the torso.

In a digitigrade animal, this effectively lengthens the foot, so much so that what are often thought of as a digitigrade animal's " hands " and " feet " correspond only to what would be the bones of the human finger or toe.

Like running members of the even-toed ungulates, mesonychids ( " Pachyaena ", for example ) walked on their digits ( digitigrade locomotion ) . surviving into the Early Oligocene epoch, as the climate changed and fierce competition arose from the better adapted creodonts.
