The recovered skeleton comprises almost the entire skull and torso and many parts of the limbs. The features of the skeleton suggest adaptation to walking upright (bipedalism) as well as tree-climbing, features that correspond well with the skeletal features of Lucy and other specimens of Australopithecus afarensis from Ethiopia and Tanzania.
The recovered skeleton is remarkably complete, including most of the skull and torso, along with many limb bones. The skeletal structure indicates adaptations for both walking upright (bipedalism) and climbing trees, features that are consistent with those found in Lucy and other Australopithecus afarensis fossils from Ethiopia and Tanzania.
