Path tortuosity changes the transport cost paradigm in terrestrial animals

R. Wilson, K. A. Rose, R. S. Metcalfe, M. Holton, J. Redcliffe, R. Gunner, L. Borger, A. Loison, J. Milos, M. S. Painter, V. Silovsky, N. Marks, M. Garel, C. Toigo, P. Marchand, , M. Scantlebury

The paper shows that path tortuosity affects transport cost in terrestrial animals, with minimum cost of transport speed decreasing as tortuosity increases.
