Digging Locomotion is a specialized form of mammalian locomotion characterized by the use of forelimbs or other anatomical structures to generate propulsive and resistive forces in substrate displacement, distinguishing it from terrestrial, aquatic, or aerial locomotor modes by its reliance on intermittent, high-resistance interaction with granular or compacted media for forward movement.
