Animal locomotion for other modes of locomotion. Penguins either waddle on their feet or slide on their bellies across the snow, a movement called "tobogganing", which conserves energy while moving quickly. Some pinnipeds perform a similar behaviour called "sledding". Some animals are specialized for moving on non-horizontal surfaces. One common habitat for such climbing animals is in trees, for example the gibbon is specialized for arboreal movement, traveling rapidly by brachiation. Another case is animals like the snow leopard living on steep rock faces such as are found in mountains. Some light animals are able to climb up smooth sheer surfaces or
Arboreal salamander to 0.783 in ages >4 yr. These subspecies have been proposed in the past due to genetic and morphological differences, but they are not currently recognized. Arboreal salamander The arboreal salamander ("Aneides lugubris") is a species of climbing salamander. An insectivore, it is native to California and Baja California, where it is primarily associated with oak and sycamore woodlands, and thick chaparral. "Aneides lugubris" is SVL (snout-vent length), with plain purplish-brown coloring, usually spotted dorsally with gold or yellow, although it may also be unspotted. The tail is prehensile.
